I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a new pleated windshield drapery. Before I do that, if there is a recognized vendor that sells them, I would like to support them. Not finding any ads in Vintage RVing or Jim K's website.
Thanks in advance.

I got the Guskie's front wrap around shade. They are too stiff for my
liking and the ends that Velcro to seal keep falling out of the fabric.
Cloth would be my preference. We did order the day night shades from
Guskie and are happy with them.

This is Gary Coaster with GMC RV Shades. We always appreciate feedback on our shades especially if someone has an issue.
With respect to Bruce’s concern, I did have a GMCer at the Tucson rally where I fixed his Velcro in his front wrap. He had a bad roller connection which we were able to repair. It sounds as though Bruce’s was more than that.
The front pleated wraps are constructed of a high quality Stitchbond material which does have some stiffness because it is pleated.
The shades last forever and are very resistant to fading.
For those attending the rally in Mansfield, we will be there where you can learn more about the day/night shades, front pleated wraps, and the exterior covers.
We have been selling the day/night shades since 2015. It started with buying the Guske’s coach in 2013 and then they passed the shade business on to us to continue serving the GMC community.
