I find simple attaching means are best but don't always follow my own advise.
For my BP had some cheap little c clamps around decided to just clamp on the dro shield. Obviously not a universal solution. Something that snapped into the 5/8 t slots from underneath would be better.
The tormach had existing tapped holes so I made some threaded pins that hold pretty well and trap the cover against the vise.

I've had no problems with chips sticking or being difficult to clean off. It isn't very magnetic for swarf but sticks well to the bed.
The cheapskate in me is waiting to find a fallen mud flap from a big rig. Many uses for that heavy rubber, plus it's recycling.
