[QUOTE="dj2r, post: 501312, member: 30726"] Regarding rivitted versus welded, don't mix the two. If the original is rivitted and you try to fix by "welding", you'll end up with a hideous mess. I had good results sealing with Gluvit about 8 years ago on a 14' Alumacraft of about 1965 vintage. Its still holding well. where the rivitted centerline had leaked pretty severely. I had prepped the aluminum with an aluminum cleaner immediately prior to the application of Gluvit and I do mean immediately. Did I say immediately? [/QUOTE]
