After I removed the tape I re-drilled each of the holes with my 1/4" drill and then counter sunk the two holes that had been potted.


This is a picture of the hole I made with the 1/4" #654 Dremel bit. The hole is clean and precise with plenty of separation between the epoxy and the core. Both the top and bottom holes through the deck skins remained at 1/4" for a factory original look and feel yet this is much better than how it would have come from the factory.
