is it possible to, instead of drilling holes and riveting, use some type of epoxy or glue to attach some brackets for a deck to the inside of my aluminum jon? ive heard people say that 5200 sealent is super permenent and almost impossible to get of so that got me thinking......... just a question
thanks

If I recall 5200 stays somewhat flexible. I do not think it would be solid enough for a structural support. You can probably find other adhesives that would work. I would look at Automotive Panel adhesives. They would probably do the job but your looking at a lot of $. I would guess your going to shell out $50+ just to get the gun apply them. They come in a funky two tube container.
