[QUOTE="acabtp, post: 223116, member: 5368"] Fixing it right by rebucking the rivet is free since most people already have 2 hammers, or a hammer and a sledge or whatever. I don't know why more tin boaters do not just do it the right way, we are cheap! JB weld is a less effective solution both from a time and money viewpoint... it takes longer to mix and apply to a leaky rivet than a couple hammer taps does, you have to wait for it to cure to see if it holds water, and you are using a consumable material in the process which you had to buy!
