[QUOTE="rabbit, post: 288806, member: 10250"] I wouldn't JB either. If it doesn't leak that much... Some people re-swage the rivets. Some get welded. A couple people claim good success by replacing bad ones with stainless flat head screws, nuts. JB has it's uses but it's not that strong. Boat will work and the JB will give out. I'm told it also has steel powder in it so you'll never be able to weld them or probably re-swage them either. In my canoe I usually have a big sponge. Unless it leaks like the Titanic that's good enough for the canoe. [/QUOTE]
