EZ Snap Skirting?

I didnt use the billboard materteral, but on my new to me currant camper i would, will.
On my other camper it was older, and the skirting wasnt to be used a lot, just for emergency's. I use new oiled cotton/tarps. Sews really nice with a normal machine and can be gotten in lots of colors. Its nice to have water proof that makes it wind proof, but something that just rolls and or folds up nice when not needed.

Snaps can be gotten with the screws in them, various lengths and or even self tapping, or hollow to add your own screw. I found it less evasive to screw to the bottom. Just leave a 2 or more inch end part/flap, after the snap part.

The skirting doesnt have to be air tight, and or really cant be. It needs to block the wind more so. Any type of heat retained under is way better than nothing, i find its the wind that is the biggest problem, in the cold.

On this new to me, 2020 reflections 273mk 5ver, i will be making a front skirt to make it like a clean looking shed for stuff, and will be using the billboard stuff. Ill spend the money and use the 3M style no drill snap system. But if i skirt the rest of the camper, ill use stainless screw snaps along the bottom.
 
The billboard material sews really nice, i believe its the same as awning style material. Most people replace the hole awning if the part at the camper goes bad, but the rest of it is just fine. For me, an awning isnt always out, so the part at the camper sees the weather the most, wile the rest is like new.
All that has to be done is remove the awning and cut out the bad part and re sew the pocket for the tube to slide in to put it back on the camper. All wile only loosing less than a foot of the total awning.
 
I used the ez snap system mounts and a billboard material for the skirting took me a good afternoon to make it fit nicely. gonna see how it works looks pretty solid. I am not using the pvc method to secure it on the ground, I decided to use water bags for pool covers and lay them all the way around. I use to work for a pool company years ago and when you place those bags down nothing gets under them and they hold everything in place nicely.
