    You hook one side to rail and pull aand fold over the otherside. Im not a good explainer.

    Unload steel next to a Mav guy nd watch and they will show you.

    I have a stepdeck, so your "rub railing" doesn't really apply since the tarp will be hanging off the trailer onto the ground anyways.

    Never used a bag always my 6 ft drop steel tarps. I got good and could usually tarp a coil in 15-20 minutes. That is if loaded suicide. Thats how I prefer to haul them, it seemed easier to tarp that way too.
