Why brother trying to reem holes that are hard to get to? If the bolts are a close fit just take the embry cloth to the bolts and reduce bolt diameters slightly. I would not think this would reduce the bolt strength enough to amount to anything. Stick the bolts in a drill press Just at the grip/thread point and let it spin while holding a strip of embry cloth thus reducing all sides of the bolts in an even pattern.
