The PC-7 is the same epoxy that comes with the Eastwood steering wheel
restoration kit. Great stuff and when sanded and painted makes your
steering wheel look like new.
I later wished I had bought the Eastwood kit because the video would have
told me to file a nice V-shape in hairline cracks. If you cover hairline
cracks with epoxy, the steering wheel will crack again in the same spot.
If you file a V in the hairline cracks and allow more filler material,
you end up with a strong repair that is not so susceptible to cracking.
