What happens here

Position the loaded rivet gun with the rivet aligned into the previously drilled pilot hole through the sign/label and the metal surface. Apply firm, steady pressure to the rivet gun and activate it. The tool will pull the rivet's mandrel, deforming the rivet body on the blind side (the side not visible) to create a secure, permanent fastening. Once the rivet is set, the mandrel will snap off.

Goal: Securely attach the sign/label to the metal surface.
