US Industrial Tool & Supply Company www.ustool.com lists all sorts of riveting setting tools and bucking bars. They also handle alot of sheet metal shaping tools.
I worked for a Wison Trailer dealership. We called the aluminum rivets bunkels(?). Used them all day long putting skins on grain and livestock trailers. With a little practice you can get a very clean appearance. Just make sure the air chisel bit is squarely on the rivet, and that the guy with the hammer(we used a 2 lb hammer) on the backside does not let the hammer bounce. If the hammer bounced while riveting, it would either distort the rivet head or mar the sheeting you were trying to rivet. It's easy, any trailer repair shop has a variety of rivet sizes on hand, and with a little practice it looks very good. Just look at the side of a grain trailer. I wouldn't use Hucks. Like was mentioned before, the guns are very expensive, and not controllable. They will pull hard, and may pull through light material. Karl
