Steering Wheel




Dateline - Saturday June 6th - One task for today is steering wheel refinish. Friday night was spent chipping the old lacquer off the wheel and sanding in prep for panting. Saturday was tape and paint day. I started with two coats of Antique Amber colored lacquer, to give it that really deep look. Then, six coats of clear. Attached are pictures of the wheel before painting. I still have a few more coats to put on, then a good rubbing out to get the really smooth finish.
