 Something sticky to stop swarf rattling - Dave
I make some stuff out of ally box section pop riveted together. It has to be assembled completely before riveting, which means that some swarf from the holes drilled after assembly stays inside and then rattles a little. And every once in a while I make a mistake and have to drill out the rivet, which leaves the rivet piece inside.

Any ideas if there's something I can spray through small holes in the assembly to 'glue' the swarf together at the bottom of the tubes? I thought about chain lube, but the assemblies get warm (in a hot car), and I don't want it smelling or running out of joints.
