Dude! I’ve been absolutely racking my brain with this bloody black line. You are a lifesaver, going to attempt this when I’m finished sanding. Thankyou!

[@user-qo1wp8lv2s]

Great tip on the black line. I've just got my wheel stripped and sanded ready to recoat and couldn't decide whether the line was stain or paint as there wasn't much of it left. General consensus seems to be that it's painted.

Nice job. Love the recreation of laquer bath and glorious failure ! I am making , from scratch , a replica nardi wheel for my 356 replica and may well use your genius pinstriping solution 😀

[@lassievision]

Perhaps a little more on 'how to make the tool' but otherwise great :)

I painted the one I'm restoring (the black line) by hand... If only I knew lol. I'm struggling adding the 20 layers of varnish my brother wants... I'm looking for videos on perfect varnishing every time without any spots, or anything... And yes, I used the safety googles when I scratched the old varnish as well... I saw it coming... I knew I was going to end up in the eye ER again so I recommend always using them or you can get something stabbing you in the cornea ( is no fun, trust me xD)

[@ramonmendoza2510]

Besides your skills I really enjoyed your enthusiasm 😁

[@junaidijunie9265]

If you apply the varnish using sponge , it is more better and get much clear finish without lines if you are using painting brush

Nice job and a great video !

Nice job

[@tomdoyle1999]

Really helpful this 👍 was the original black line painted onto the wheel ?

[@MilesOnCars]

It might have been, didn’t seem to have soaked into the wood at all though and it chipped off almost like plastic.

hey, i have a wooden MOMO steering wheel, as far as i saw, when u glued the crack u covered it with the black line of paint, how would u recommend me to fix the crack since i have nothing to paint on it and the glue will be visible

[@MilesOnCars]

If you use transparent wood glue and sand it smooth once it has dried, it should be hardly visible once the lacquer/varnish is applied.

[@nymst]

thank u so much🤘

[@chirayuvolgs46]

Can you get one second hand wheel i like it nice i will pay for you 👍 please

[@donsterr]
