Marquee retainer glue

What kind of glue do you guys use to attach your marquee retainers?  On my previous arcade, I tried epoxy, gorilla glue and super glue and they all peeled right off of the PVC (?) retainer.

saint:

Screws. Not glue. Among other things you want your retainers removable for maintenance of the marquee light.

Good point but I do not want visible screws.

saint:

Small flat-head black screws will be essentially invisible. I've never seen any retainers held on by glue before. If you glue them how will you change the marquee light or clean dust from the inside of the marquee?

Hmmm.  I will have to experiment and see how it looks.

I'll most likely be doing white trim.  I'll see if I can find some screw caps or something.
