Filling Old Rivet Holes
I pulled my mast for painting, and took off most of the hardware. This includes mast steps that went up to the first set of spreaders that were attached with rivets. If I choose to not re-install them, what would be the best course of action regarding filling the holes? I would think filling/closing off the holes would be the way to go, but I am unsure of how to go about it. JB Weld, thickened epoxy, re-rivet?

Thanks
