Is there any type of pop rivet I should be asking for?

I'm doing up a 2a and am after getting the "right" type of rivet to reattach parts and make repairs with.

Probably better asking for a pop rivet.

You might need some washers too if the ally you're riveting is a bit corroded and weakened or you're riveting bits in with bigger holes than the rivets.
