When screwing the metal panels to purlins... and you hit a purlin screw or roofing nail... how would you then resolve or fix these now unwanted holes in your panels?

If you absolutely cannot get the screw in, then you can seal over the hole with a quality butyl rubber sealant, clear or color matched. Todd Miller

Todd Thank you for the reply. Someone recommended an expoxy to seal the holes... would you recommend the butyl vs the epoxy?
