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
