Original - Steering Wheel Restore?
 

My 62 O Steering wheel is in good shape without any bends. The rubber grip is faded cracked and chipped and looks really bad. Is there a good way or re-gripping it without having to buy a new wheel?

I'm thinking about straightening mine, blasting the grip off, and replacing it with spray-on bed liner or something like that... Might be worth a try...
:bigthink:

I did mine with bedliner out of a spray can. I gave it lots of coats and it came out nice and feals good.

Have an up close picture to share??

I can have one tomorrow. I thought about dipping the whole wheel in plastic dip, giving it a few coats, and them cutting it off the spokes and hub. It would be hard to get perfect though. I hate to pay something crazy for a new one when the one I have is only cosmetically flawed, I also need a pan seat. The PO welded a crappy seat on it and ruined the spring as well. I can't believe what a pan seat costs. The only one I've found so far was $200 :bigeyes: That seems a big much to me. I could have bought a nice one for what I'm going to have in this one. I'm doing it right though, every wear prone part is being replaced. Not cutting any corners.

I meant for JK777 to post a pic so you could see how his turned out and see if that's the way you want to go.

just took it.

OOPS! Guess I should have figured that one out.

I've thought about the plasti dip stuff if I could rig something up to only let the outside of the wheel go in. Just do multiple coats. I wonder how it will hold up though

How many coats is "lots of coats" approximately? :bigthink:
