In and of itself, "a lot of extra work" has rarely, if ever, kept me from
doing something -- over and over. It could (should?) be time to turn over a
new leaf though. ;)

you install a grommet on the high side of each rib, at the juction of the

installed before the finish coat of pt. A trick I use to keep things a
little
cleaner, is to slip the grommet over a large flat screw driver, to make it
easier
to hold, while applying the bonding cement with a small brush then set it
over the hole with the screw driveer. I apply quite a bit of cement and
press
them firmly in place with my fingers. I have never installed a patch over
them and have never lost one, it seems like a lot of extra work to me.
