[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 297922, member: 7544"] When you say 5200 on every rivet, do you mean on the boat? If yes, I wouldn't do that. I leak tested my boat, marked every rivet that was leaking even the slightest bit (14 rivets), then drained the boat and re bucked every rivet. Leak tested again and I had 2 rivets that seeped just a tiny bit so I clean them and surrounding metal off on the inside and put a little 5200 on them and all my leaks were gone without a lot of mess. I consider the 5200 as a temp fix but re bucking a rivet is a permanent fix in my book. [/QUOTE]
