G Baese is correct.

The hotter the day the better for streaching the top material.

If you have original raingutters and front and back moulding, it can be taken off by very carefully prying off the metal tack strips. Make a mental note on the replacement of the strips, gutters and moulding so as when to reinstall they are in the right spot.

And as stated above...sometimes the wood is so chewed up within the panels that nails will not hold the fabric.

If the wood is chewed up, but in rather good condition otherwise, try to save the original wood and remove the "nail" section with a router and add new wood sections within and replace.
