Default Re: 1969 chevelle SS steering wheel restoration

Automix panel bond is what I have been using on black wheels, I usually undercut so that around the metal is actually larger bulb than the crack in order to ensure it will not dislodge. you may be able to use a little wad of aluminum foil behind plastic as the grain texture for the little place on the front which needs to be replicated
.
After finishing the repair tape the grain and then sand the wheel with some fine sand paper to get the scratches out and follow up with polish.

If the epoxy is not black enough add carbon black to the mixture, it is available in art supply stores as a fine powder.
