Default Re: Correct Paint Type for Steering Wheels

You want to use 220-240 grit sandpaper this way the sand scratches won't be too big but yet provide good adhesion for the primer. Use a sandable primer surfacer that will fill scratches and imperfections. Most likely your steering wheel is painted in medium fawn which is PPG number 22151, you can get it mixed at an automotive paint store and possibly converted to basecoat then to be clear coated with an acrylic urethane or polyurethane. The PPG number can be cross linked to Dupont brand of automotive paint or other brands depending on what the store carries.
