[QUOTE="zackn, post: 136329, member: 3087"] For my boat, I'm not going to get into replacing rivets. It doesn't seem worth the time or cost. My plan, after stripping down to bare aluminum, is to rebuck the all rivets with a couple hammers. Sounds like that has pretty good results. Then I might try 3M 5200 Marine Sealant on the rivets and seams, and then going over that with Gluvit on inside and out. Then primer and paint on top of that. I don't know if that's the best way to go, but seems like a viable option from what I've read. --Zack [/QUOTE]
