Does anyone know a method of making the fitting of draft skirts easier? We always find it very difficult and it takes us ages (even when we use a silicon spray).

    Draught skirts are one thing that has annoyed me, dont know why but never been happy with the fit. 

    Last time on site a chap setting up next to me had a really good setup. He had a drive away awing kit and used it for the skirt. You get 3x 1m of figure 8 double bead awning strip and 3m of double ended kador strip (6mm to 6mm). You can buy by the meter if you need longer length.

    Fit the kador strip to the van in one piece, fit the fig 8 plastic to the kador strip, fit the skirt to the other side of the fig 8 strip. 

    Easy to fit, hangs really well, doesnt ruck up and sag after a few hours, bridges the wheel arch. I am going to try it.
