Steering wheel finish

[Jack Stehr]

I need to refinish an original TC steering wheel. What is the best material to use? It's my understanding that originally some sort of black plastic material was applied that had a thickness of about an 1/8". Jack Stehr Piedmont, CA

Jack: My original TC wheel was refinished using black imron paint. This produces a hard gloss finish. Ken TC 4147 Jack Stehr wrote:

Ray: An original TC steering wheel is the rarest of commodities. The chances of finding one is close to impossible. About the only place you may find one is a large swap meet and then you must be prepared to fork over a tidy sum. I believe someone on the list said a while back that he was going to try and make reproductions. I haven't heard anything since. Good luck. Ken TC 4147 Ray McCrary wrote:
