Hello,
I noticed the topic posted about painting the original steering wheel.
At some point I will attempt to refurbish my original steering wheel. In my case where the spokes meet the wheel, all points of the rigid plastic are fractured.
I considered making a mixture consisting of say, pulverized old 78 records (because they're black in color and easy enough to pulverize to a powder substance) and mixing with an epoxy base glue.
I would also consider making metal inserts, concealed from view, and place in such a way to make rigid those [third] points.
Using old records, I feel, make for easier filing and sanding to a smooth finish and hopefully blend in with little difference in appearance.
Any thoughts on this approach or even better?? I do wish to keep my original wheel.
