Better to use a polyurethane caulk like Sikaflex or Trempro 630.

If you know how, that's half the battle. Spent 23 years in aviation. I buck any rivet I have access to. And install a stainless screw with self locking nut if it's a higher strength area. I do have the aviation tools, so that is a benefit! Thanks NwA!@#$.
