         2 . An express tarp according to  claim 1 , wherein the loops are 15-35 cm long, at 15-40 cm intervals along the entire outer edge of the tarp, wherein the loops are fastened onto the tarp at both ends of each loop either permanently, by chemical melting, gluing, or sewing, or detachably, with buttons or press studs, so that the loops are at a 90 degree angle in relation to the tarp's outer edge onto which the loops are fastened. 
     
     
         3 . An express tarp according to  claim 1 , wherein the loops are fastened onto both sides of an entire edge area of the tarp so that one longer loop goes around the tarp's edge to both sides of the tarp and fastens at its ends either permanently or detachably on corresponding locations on the opposite sides of the tarp.
