Ok, I need a break from transaxle repairs(busted it twice to day)...don't get me going...
 
The steering wheel from my G has cracks and kinda powdery.Black 'dust' falls off.
 
What are my options for repairing it ?
Epoxy to fill the cracks ?
Maybe spray epoxy paint to cost the black grip areas ?
 
Anything to take my mind off the busted transaxle.....
 
and the 12" of snow STILL coming down....

 Gently sandblast at 100 psi or a little less, JB weld works fine to fill the cracks then prime and repaint.  And just keep the snow down there , we haven't had any in 4 or 5 days , but still have a foot an a half on the ground.

I second the JB Weld stuff. I used it on one of my B steering wheels. Fill the cracks, file it after it cures to smooth it, then paint it.

If you can find it PC-7 is great for doing steering wheel cracks and missing sections
