[QUOTE="Cyklops86, post: 406339, member: 20601"] ok at this point I have all the rough spots sanded back to metal, found 1 more place with a crack on the bottom but whats a little more welding at this point. All the rivets on the bottom have something dabbed around them, same stuff that I have been sanding on all day. I plan on sealing the boat pretty good whether with bedliner or steelflex or something similar. Should I clean all the rivets down to metal or should I just smooth it all out and make sure it doesn't flake off? Here is a pic of what just about every rivet looks like [url=https://s1310.photobucket.com/user/jhamilton86/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-02/C66DA623-1E83-4BBC-8168-8350F2074328_zpshfiwgmtp.jpg.html][img]https://i1310.photobucket.com/albums/s660/jhamilton86/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-02/C66DA623-1E83-4BBC-8168-8350F2074328_zpshfiwgmtp.jpg[/img][/url] I want to do this to last but at the same time I don't want to spend time that is not needed. Like I said above, this is a fishing boat and I dont care about pretty. Pretty doesn't catch fish but I want it to last. [/QUOTE]
