I have to pop-rivet some eyelets to an aluminium boom. I plan to use monel rivets but part of the mild steel pin will remain inside the rivet when I've clinched it.
What to do with this pin? Knock it through and it will lurk inside the boom and rust. Leave it where it is and it will also rust. Either way seems likely I'll end up with rust stains weeping out.
Advice appreciated.
