Default Does ANYTHING stick to interior walls?

All of my Velcro strips are coming off the interior walls and I haven't found anything that will hold them in place. Also there is some plastic trim around the door that was apparently held on by 3M trim stick tape, it's coming off as well. I'm not overly concerned about the door trim as it was cut very poorly and looks pretty bad. I'll probably replace it with something else, but again I need to know what have folks used as an adhesive for the textured aluminum interior walls?

The factory switched to round Velcro "dots", about 1+ inch in diameter, held on with a screw. Wonder why?

Interesting. Anyone have a picture of what that may look like?

Hope this will give you an idea of the dot. As Bill said it's only an inch in diameter, but it does the job to hold the flaps up when closing. I bought some of what I thought would be the correct sized dots from Amzn, but turns out they're only about 3/4 of an inch in diameter. Not their fault, but mine for not reading the description properly. I will probably still use them to hold the flaps up in the center sections of the flaps.

Thanks! I was wondering if the screw went through the front of the Velcro or if the Velcro was rigid part of the head of the screw... I can see the head of the screw on top of the circle so that answers my question. I bet I can find the dots at a craft store or something like that. How long a screw would I use? I don't really know how thick the walls are...

My rig is closed, but I'm camping this weekend and can check the length of what's on mine and post later, unless someone else can answer you sooner.

Should be the same screws as are used elsewhere in the TM. 5/8" or 3/4"
