The problem with liquid cement for thin styrene overlays, is that it can't evaporate quickly enough, and has a much longer time to "act" on the sheet.
The major problem I had was the liquid cement would cause the rivets to "melt back into the sheet". Adding body putty to the back of the punched rivets stopped that from happening.
I'm thinking that clamping the "rivet sheet" in place, and applying liquid cement, sparingly, along the edges might be the better way to go.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
