[QUOTE="Axhammer, post: 517416, member: 16767"] You always want to “stop drill” the cracks. When there are rivets in the repair area, the standard practice is to pick up those holes in the patch. When the patch gets installed, new rivets will go in those holes. The lap patch normally consists of one patch. Like a bandaid, and it’s called a doubler. When required a doubler will go on both sides. [/QUOTE]
