So this past week I drove 500 miles to work on the truck with Ken for a few days. We got lots done!
I spent a few hours working on repairing the steering wheel cracks with Fusor 100EZ and a dremel.
I Vee'd out all the cracks with my Dremel tool and the bit shown in the picture below. It worked perfectly and I would highly recommend this tool for this job!
Fusor 100EZ is a beautiful plastic bonding material that has a 40 minute work time. Because of the long working time, I was able to only use one static mixer by squeezing out a tiny bit of adhesive at a time onto some masking paper and used my gloved finger to smear and push it into the grooved out cracks. I used the static mixer to mix the product as per manufacturer's instructions. I kept applying product as it started to set up as it sunk into the cracks. I made sure I had built up enough product to be sure that when I sanded and Dremelled the excess material off, I could smooth over the cracks and not have any low spots.
I turned out real nice!
First of all this truck is looking great. LOVE those two tone colors. You made that steering wheel seem easy. Never heard of Fusor 100EZ will have to look that up. Wondering what dremel bits, etc. you used for sanding off the excess? Then did you spray with anything special to paint it?
