Steering wheel cracked
The steering wheel on my truck has a crack on the spoke about 1/8 inch wide otherwise its in good shape. What would be good to use to patch it up?
I was going to try epoxy with microballons but I'm not sure what to use to dye the epoxy Black with.
I've been using these forums for about a month now and I really have found some good tips on fixing up my new truck.
