[QUOTE="airshot, post: 490702, member: 1183"] Years back I repaired a small jon boat from leaking rivets and also places where the ribs were litterly worn thru from dragging over rocks and sand. I found a product called "Leak Stopper" clear patch/sealer. This stuff is made for roofing and exterior metal. Goes on milky white but dries clear. I used it liberally in the worn thru ribs both inside and outside, I painted it on with a brush. After more than 5 years that stuff still looks great, the paint has worn away but the clear seal is still there holding like new. The jon boat is still dragged over rocks and sand and the paint has worn thru but not the clear seal!! To this day there is not a drop of water leaked thru this jon boat. You can buy this stuff thru Home Depot and Tractor supply and I dont know who else, but this stuff does work. Also tried some on my old Barn roof.....yep has outlasted the black roofing tar sealer by a long ways... [/QUOTE]
