[quote=Wolfman]I have used adhesive/sealant all over my boat to bed eye straps and to seal rivets in addition to through bolting and screwing. I don't know about the butyl tape but that sound like a good option to seal those areas. I second the vote, Don't use 5200! It it evil in every way. It likes to let go when you don't want it to and won't come off when you want it to. I swear by Sikaflex 281, but like was mentioned above, make sure you have your gelcoat and painting completed before you apply it and clean up around it with acetone while it is still wet. You won't get paint to stick to it. And excess left on the paint will discolor noticeably leaving a stain on your nice new coating and no possibility of getting it off without sanding..[/quote]
