bed cover

I have a velcro soft cover and the velcro keeps loosing its grip on the metal....when it rains the cover fills with water and pulls velcro loose from the metal even with truck on a driveway with a good slope...I am going to use snaps on front bed rail to see if that helps as that is where the velcro is pulling away from the metal lip the most......its a hassle.....

Thanks for posting the info. I assume that the front of the cover attaches to a velcro strip that sits more or less on top of the rail while the sides and rear wrap around the rails with the velco more on the lower surfaces of the rails. Is that correct?
