The important part is to squirt some Sikaflex or other sealer into the fastener holes to prevent water from wicking into the interior of your boat, a cored laminate, or etc. (Don't use 5200 to seal the fasteners unless you are *positive* you will never need to remove them. You can use 4200, but not 5200). I've seen it recommended to use oil when driving SS into glass, to prevent galling. Do you know of a respected FAQ(s) for attaching fittings to different boat materials? Thanks. --Vic |
