[QUOTE="Troutman3000, post: 168704, member: 2535"] YOu have to rebuck the rivets or any hull stress will cause the rivet to move and crack the steel-flex. Ask me how I know. I will tell you from expirience if you are steelflexing a riveted boat that will see a lot of hull stress (flexing) its not a good idea. If you want to seal the boat for a high stress environment you should use gluv-it on the inside as it will seal the hull and will be flexible enough not to crack. JMO. [/QUOTE]
