Dave, I'm currently in the process of restoring the steering wheel on my
'47-2. Based on comments from several list members, I'm planning to use
primer, then 2-3 coats of black enamel, then 2-3 coats of clear. Other
members have said this will "hold up for years". Hey, I'll be glad to get
back to you in 4-5 years and let you know if it works! :>)
