Vance, when you painted the steering wheel grip, was the Plasti-Kote paint
sufficient to fill minor defects? My grip is getting pretty tired, and I
plan to use a syringe and adhesive to tighten its attachement to the wheel,
and paint it for cosmetic reasons. However, it has a fairly large pit that
I believe is from the injection molding process. How did the paint fill
that on your wheel?
