uPVC Pipe Cover Keeps Popping Off

[adzyp]

Hi All,

I've got something similar to this in my kitchen to cover some pipes https://www.diy.com/departments/plu...-clip-t682v3-dia-15mm/184675_BQ.prd?rrec=true

As im sure is a common issue, the cover has warped slightly with the heat of the pipes and it isnt staying on the clips properly.

I can think of 2 ways to sort this, but im struggling with both:

1. Glue it to the wall - tried this but as there isnt much to grab to on the cover, unless I stand there for an hour whilst it dried, it just comes away from the wall again

2. Get more clips so that it has more to clip on to - I cant seem to find these clips for sale separately. I can see these - https://www.diy.com/departments/plu...ip-m551dqv3-dia-15mm-pack-of-10/170835_BQ.prd - but they dont seem to have the bit that the cover clips in to?

Any suggestions welcome!

Use a superglue activator and a drop of superglue on the clips...but don't overdo it as you may want to get it off again.
