[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 415830, member: 13702"] Following your lead I took the old steering wheel off the boat - cleaned it well with some degreaser, taped off the metal trim sections, gave it a little TLC with some sandpaper & zapped it with some Kryolon plastic paint. The paint seems to have bonded very well - time will tell how it holds up but for the $1 worth of paint it took to pretty it up i can afford to hit it again down the road.
