Paint Steering Column Notches?
The notches for the control rods on the column - do you all paint that face knowing they will be rubbed off but it will leave paint deep in the notches?
Mask them off? |

Re: Paint Steering Column Notches?
To cut back on the wear and make the levers stay where put, stretch a length of rubber or plastic hose over the levers where they rub against the notches. Experiment with different hoses until you find something that you like. Perhaps heat shrink tubing?
