[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 459636, member: 15636"] 5200 would be my last choice on already installed rivets. Gluvit or West Systems G-Flex (better choice, is flexible) would be a better choice. I'd sand, prep, vinegar wash any exposed tin, then would prime it. Then coat the rivets if you feel you must. Personally I think prophylactic application of any epoxy product to coat the 'entire' hull is an absolute wa$tw of money. Those with jet boats going over rough surfaces .... I get it. Any epoxy product must be over-coated with paint, as they are not designed to withstand UV exposure. Look up Johnny's posts on painting. [/QUOTE]
