The velcro has held up very well for me. I ended up attaching the velcro, using a heat gun (hairdryer will work too) to heat up the glue very quickly and let it set for 24hrs. You can find velcro most hardware stores - i bought mine at a marine store that sells boating accessories.

i'll get back to you on the brand and good luck!
I just received my plastic sheet today (ordered Wed night).

I'm not concerned about the velcro pieces coming undone as I am with the glue that holds them on to the plastic and leather peeling off the pads. I think that I'm gonna lay down some duct tape where I plan on putting on the velcro.
