Hey guys,
I was checking out the steering wheel repair thread, but could not find anything about what kind of paint to use.
Anyone know anything about that?
Thanks guys,

re: Steering wheel refinishing ???
hey studdmstr...
I duuno, but I gave the on my bus 3 coats of Krylon satin black...
it looks like new.
I haven't driven it yet so I dunno how it's gonna hold up. I haven't used any clear on it yet, but I think I will before I actually reinstall it.
Check out the pics
follow the link for Olde Skool and it's no the last page of pics (page 5, I think)

I did one and used "appliance" epoxy. You can get it in any store in the spraycan. But with that stuff youre limited to white, almond (close match to Ford white) and black. Its epoxy so its durable.
