If you want to apply paint over the seal, this is possible. However, make sure that the sealing is absolutely dry before you put the paint over it.
What we will do here is talk about the generic stages, but in the end, we will also give you a little bonus section explicitly related to sealing rivets. This is because we understand that an aluminum boat may have its own secrets that we want to address. So let’s see how to seal an aluminum boat.
This TotalBoat epoxy is intended to seal and protect any kind of wood. Another good feature of this material is that it is suitable to repair and harden rotten wood. Moreover, this substance prevents the growth of fungi and mildew. here
Hy-Poxy Aluminum Putty Repair Kit
Even if you don’t jump beaver dams in your aluminum boat, normal wear and tear can eventually cause loose rivets and seams to leak. Or maybe the leaks were a gift from the boat’s previous owner. Other repair products usually require the entire hull to be coated, and they can shrink and crack, or fail because they don’t tolerate the hull flexing. At TotalBoat, we worked long and hard to come up with a faster, easier to use, more reliable fix for these common problems. If you suffer the double discomforts of constant bailing and wet feet, TotalBoat Aluminum Boat Leak Sealer has the long working time and fast cure for what ails you and your aluminum hull.

Works on properly prepared aluminum surfaces.
Will Gorilla Waterproof Patch & Seal Tape work on plastic/vinyl/rubber? more
What should I do if I think a human or animal has ingested Gorilla Waterproof Patch & Seal Tape?
1. Keeping liner on tape, cut tape to desired size. Tape size should be larger than the repair area, extending beyond all edges. Overlapping tape may cause leaks. Round the corners of the patch to provide less chance of tape lifting at corners. When possible, apply tape to both sides of the repair.
2. Remove the release liner and place tape over desired repair area. Tape cannot be repositioned once applied.
3. Rub entire surface of the tape aggressively, especially the edges. Smooth the patch from the center to outer edges.
4. Hold the patch in place for 2 minutes to ensure good adhesion. If possible, apply weight to the patch for 24 hours.
Store Gorilla Waterproof Patch & Seal Tape on the top and disc at room temperature. Edges of tape may be sticky. [links]
Hot glue seems to work pretty well, sets up in seconds. Seems to bond reasonably well to the poly.

Well I guess every modern kayak manufacturer seems to understand that bolts catch on things and would cause elongation/cracking at the bolt holes located on the one area that takes the most stress and abuse. So, to contradict Larrys contradiction, I think it's unwise to bolt to the bottom. Especially when it's so easy to modify any saddle system to attach to most hulls current footbrace bolt holes. Glassing in a stud to the floor of a glass boat seems like it would work well though. [links]
did i not say that the bolts might slow your rock boofs? I guarantee that, and the stigma, are the only problems. cracking? it's a long shot.
