How to secure sink drain and shower drain cover?
Should I secure the sink drain cover and shower drain cover? They always move away when water is flushing.
Is there any glue I can use ?
Thank you for any advice.

Re: How to secure sink drain and shower drain cover?
Hello @ivanptr
Thanks for sharing your question about securing your sink and shower drain covers. If you wish to hold these items in place, I propose using Selleys 300g Clear Wet Area Waterproof Silicone Sealant. However, please keep in mind that using silicone is a temporary measure and not a long-term solution.
Eventually the silicone will break down and the covers will come off, unfortunately, it is difficult to predict how long the silicone will last in an area that is constantly exposed to water. I propose putting a thin bead under the drain covers. This will hold them in place and will not be too difficult to remove should you need to service the drain.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
