Hi, I have just over tighten the screw in =my vent plug on my foil board. There is no damage to the plug or the screw, but it seems to have detached from the board and now wobbles.
Does that mean water can get in ?
Also how should I fit this ? Should I just try and apply epoxy resin around the rim of the vent to try and reattached it to the main part of the board ?

Just to be clear, is this the traditional metal plug or a Gortex plug?
