Diamond Plate Rivets
My diamond plate kit didn't come with any instructions. Do I need a special tool for the stainless steel rivets...or can I use a hammer?

Re: Diamond Plate Rivets
A good rivet gun and some "Big Guns" to pull with. SS rivets are tough to pull with your regular 3/16 cheapy pop riviter...

Re: Diamond Plate Rivets
Are they pop rivets or push pin rivets. Pop rivets have a long nail like stem and the push pin rivets have a short pin that has a flat end. The rivets for my replacement brake pedal pad were push pin rivets.

Re: Diamond Plate Rivets
Pop rivet then. If you don't have a tool to pop them you can probably rent one really cheap.
