[QUOTE="TheMaestro, post: 315425, member: 8533"] If you have a leaky rivet, the best way to fix it is to 'buck' the rivet, basically someone holds a sledge hammer on the outside of the rivet while you hammer it tight on the inside. That said, MANY people will simply use 3M 5200 sealant. Thats what I would suggest if its only one or two. I know Home Depot sells it in the USA, or is it Lowes? You are doing very well on your build, dont be overwhelmed. Theres lots of info in here, but you dont have to read all of it at once. When I did mine, I did go through the mods area moastly. I didnt even get to the motors section until i was out on the water. So just a little at a time. Also, the search up top the right of the screen is very effective :) Just ask questions and we can help or point you to exisiting threads! [/QUOTE]
