Question: Curtains in My 1999 Coleman Mesa Tent Trailer...

have fallen off the rod. It is actually a tab that was attached to the curtain and slips on to a strip. I live in Southern California and it gets real hot here. I have tried glue guns and velcro but they both fall off while the tent trailer is folded up, from the heat. Does anyone have an idea how to get the tabs to stick to the curtain?

liquid cement?
by: Erink19

I think that liquid cement might do the trick. I am not sure if you have it there but we have it in Ohio and it bonds to pretty much almost anything!

You could try the 3M sticky pads; they are designed to stick to walls and can hold a reasonable amount of weight. We all used them in our dorm rooms. The only issue is how well it would stick to the tent material.

Fusible Webbing
by: KitKat

I'd try fusible webbing to attach the tab to the curtain. You place the webbing where needed, and run an iron over it to fuse the pieces together. Since the product is activated by heat, maybe it will hold up under hot conditions. You can find this product in craft stores as well as places such as Walmart.
