Itasca 38G Bedroom Slide

There is some felt on the outside top of my bedroom slide that is starting to come off. Assuming that this is to protect the slide topper. If anyone else has had this problem, what did you use to re-attach this felt? Thanks.

It isn't felt. It's Velcro loops. Winnebago installs the strip to cushion the slide topper and the roller but so far it has just about fallen off of every coach that we've seen here.

Recommendation is to finish pulling the thing off and throwing it in the garbage. Don't worry about it. Missing, it isn't going to hurt anything.

Hamie, I have tried several times to replace that felt and each time it keeps rolling up in my slide awning. If you find a fix please let us know.

DriVer hit the nail on the head again!

Best thing to do is tear off the velcro and throw it away. WI Customer Service admitted to me that the velcro was problematic and removal would not have any real consequences.
