Morning! Some of you may remember I had an awful faded red steering wheel, that I painted with matt-black spray paint, which was fine, until I scratched it ..so I flocked it! The picture doesn't do it justice though..

Longevity is as yet untested on a steering wheel, but it should fare reasonably well though as the resin it's set in goes off like concrete, and it does feel good to hold.. and yes, can flock any wheel, any colour.

hmm, interesting point.. I reckon a blade could be run around the edge of the SRS panel before the resin has completely gone off, there would be in invisible seam then.

I noticed how bad my reflection is from my dash this weekend, I think your local to Plymouth? Can you pm me a price and I'll try to get it out some time. Cheers
