im after some help/ideas on the best way to fix the skirting board along the bath panel, id really like to fix it without the fixings being seen but of course it may need to come off at a later date so i cant really use brad nails. i had also thought of using magnets but there is no where to counter sink them in to due to the bath panel only being 1mm thick ish.

just looking for ideas how others have got round it or have you just use screws?

Screw it from behind the bath panel then?

Bath panels don't normally have skirting boards on. maybe a little bead of silicon or summat ??

what about

Screw caps,

Mirror screws wont look too bad but stand out

Countersink hole in skirting board and fill over screw hole then paint find with magnet if you need to unscrew

All three above solutions are correct in their own way; it's your choice mate . . .

Cut it at both ends and secure to bath panel as above? Then when you remove the panel the section of skirting will come off with it.

ahh now thats a good idea (why did i not think of that one )

this is the reason i needed to use skirting board along this edge of the bath, the bath has been raised up for some reason and i never thought about removing it when i had the bathroom pulled apart



although i do think the skirting board works well and if its screwed to the bath panel from behind it should help to keep the fibreglass panel straight

sorry about the dust in the room its hard to keep things clean with trying to get the other rooms in the house done
