Vance, when you painted the steering wheel grip, was the Plasti-Kote paint 
sufficient to fill minor defects?  My grip is getting pretty tired, and I 
plan to use a syringe and adhesive to tighten its attachement to the wheel, 
and paint it for cosmetic reasons.  However, it has a fairly large pit that 
I believe is from the injection molding process. How did the paint fill 
that on your wheel?
