EZ Snap® Breakthrough Fastener Innovation
Patented Snap System Designed For Exterior Shades
This amazing “No-Drill” Fastener System allows the average do-it-yourselfer to install Exterior Shade Screens or RV Skirting, with no experience and without specialized tools… Making it easy for you to have professional-looking results every time.
3M Adhesive Studs stick well on smooth, flat, non-textured surfaces such as vinyl window frames, aluminum, plastic, and fibreglass. If installing EZ Snap® Fasteners on wood, we recommend using our Stainless Steel Screw-in Studs.
EZ Snap® Studs attach securely to your mounting surface. 3M Fasteners are available in four colors, designed to match most window frames, RVs, or other mounting surfaces. Stainless Steel Studs look similar to the snaps used on most boat tops.
EZ Snap Pins snap securely onto the mounted Studs and feature a small, sharp plastic shaft that pokes through the Shade or RV Skirting Material. Caps are pressed onto the Pins (with Shade Mesh or RV Skirting in between) and lock permanently onto the Pins.
The caps and pins stay permanently locked together on the fabric. The Studs remain on the mounting surface on your window frames or RV. This allows for easy removal and replacement when desired, using the EZ Snap® Removal Tool.

How the Caps and Pins Work
“The Magic of EZ Snap”
The EZ Snap® cap and pins are what make EZ Snap® so easy to install.
- The female base of the pin snaps onto the male part of the type of stud you have chosen (Screw, 3M/Screw COMBO or 3M only).
- Once the pins are snapped onto the studs, puncture the pin end through the material. (Shading mesh or RV Skirting).
- IMPORTANT: Ensure that you have pushed the material down the very base of the pin.
- Next, push on the female caps onto the pin. This locks the material into the pin.
- The pin and cap now stay together, locked on the fabric.
EZ Snap Fastener Installation Tips:
Install in warmer temperatures, preferably at least +15c/60F, but better yet is 21c/70F or warmer.
Fasteners should be pressed into place with a minimum of 15 lbs of pressure.
Clean surface first with 50/50 isopropyl alcohol and water mixture to remove any film, dirt or oxidization. 3M recommends using Primer Pen for best results.
After 3M studs have been installed, wait a minimum of 60 minutes before you install the shading mesh, 24 hours is ideal.
3M Adhesive Bonding Times
Stainless Steel Studs (Self Tapping)
The EZ Snap screw stud is made using stainless steel for long lasting, corrosion free performance. Although it can be used in any type of EZ Snap application, it is ideal for wooden window frames, were the 3M stud has trouble sticking long term.
The biggest benefit of using the screw in studs, is that they are a mechanical fastener and you do not have to worry about surface prep or installation temperature when you install them.
The screw studs specs:
The stainless steel screw stud is self tapping (for wood, PVC and Lightweight aluminum window frames) and has a screw shaft that is 7/16″ in length.
If you are attaching EZ Snap onto stucco, brick or concrete, made sure to order the screw stud with stucco kit when you check out. See below for more info…
