Stubborn Awning Stains

Hello again everyone! We are back in Colorado, starting our fourth month of 2019 living in our Montana. We just bought a house in Westminster, CO and are in escrow. But now that winter is over and we have rolled out our awning, it is hideously filthy. So I did the standard Camco cleaner and it was like trying to remove tar with plain water. So I moved up to a Bleach/Detergent mix, still no luck. As my last resort, I tried PURE BLEACH on a couple of the mold spots, and the bleach didn't touch it at all. Any suggestions? Do I need to replace the awning, it's six years old? Is there another product that handles the mold/mildew better?

Tilex mold and mildew cleaner does a great job,spray it on,roll the awning up,let sit for 20 minutes unroll take a long handle car wash brush,scrub and rinse off with water hose.May need a rain hat and a nice warm day

Is it worse on top of awning? If so what I do is roll out awning about a foot at a time and get a ladder, magic eraser and Simple Green. I use the awning tube as a backer so I can apply pressure. The long handle brush is easier but hard to apply pressure if needed.
