I was reading an article on line by John Henry about refinishing a steering wheel. He claims that urethane paint is the best choice because of it's durability.
Does anyone know of a spray urethane product on the market that is close to the VW Ivory? I know Krylon makes an ivory paint product that is close to the original but it's not as durable.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

| check your local paint supply store, alot of them can make custom mixed spray cans. But why not just use a traditional spray gun? Most store bought spray cans are enamel. Make sure you kow what kind of paint Wolfsburg West sells if you decide to buy from them |

| The guy that recommened the urethane should have specified acrylic urethane.Acrylic urethane is the best bet for longevity. Only problem is, you can't get it in a spray can because it requires a hardner (which is what makes it a better paint). It is defenitly worth the extra bucks and trouble. Think about it being the most used part of your car and you will agree , better products better results. |

| Is poly-urethane and urethane the same? I have poly spray at work and can find out the brand name for you? |
