Default Renewed steering wheel with SEM!

I'll try to get photos up of the drivers seat bolster, door sill, and steering wheel all done with $37 worth of SEM. What a difference it makes and a money saver.

your on the right track with the black....the white will make it look cheap, ricey, and ugly....

Think twice about that white....

Why dont we wait and see what the interior pictures looks like, before we start saying its cheap, ricey, and ugly.

Dont judge a book by its cover....

Default SEM Photos

Here they are. They could stand another sanding and spray on the seat and door sill. The steering wheel looks like new(well almost!) The wheel has a nice textured finish - not at all slippery. The air bag was not sprayed and the match is perfect.

The repair at the bottom of the bolster covered a 1/2" X 2" hole. The top and side of the bolster had numerous deep cracks. The door sill had a 3/16" gap. All, except the wheel, required 10 -20 spray applications to cover. Runs had to cure and be sanded between applications. When I get the urge I'll sand, mask, and spray to make them look even better. First I want to remove and repair the seat surround on both sides where they crack at the lever to access the rear seat.

When you spray this heavy the leather graining is covered and the finish is smoother. Be sure to mask to a seam. Good luck.

Seats -SEM Color Coat Light Neutral #15863

Wheel & Sill - SEM Color Coat Monterry #15723
