drill size for Olympic rivets

What is proper drill size for installing Olympic rivets (Inland RV part #28100)?

I tried to search, I know we’ve been here before, can’t find it, can’t remember for sure.
Andy, Michelle and others know this one.

Is this correct:
Drill out old rivets with #30 bit. Then open hole with #21 and install new rivet?

For brand new rivet installation what size pilot hole should be drilled before #21?

Thanks
