Craig, beside the very good cleaning job, your steering wheel looks very tasteful especially in the 13“ size. My much simpler looking Momo Prototipo (I wanted that simple look) was among other reasons my choice because it is also smaller than the standard size on most Morgans. The 4/4 actually does not need so much steering force.

Quite agree Heinz, the steering on my 4/4 is quite light even with the 13inch wheel.

Craig - that looks fantastic. I tried using a Dremel with the Dremel polish and it came out terrible then the felt pad fell apart so obviously Meguires is better. I ended up doing it by hand with Californian Customs Purple Polish that works nicely but I didn't get it anywhere as nice as your steering wheel.
A few questions if possible.
What fitting did you use on the Dremel?
What speed did you use on the Dremel?
Is that a 14inch wheel with the thicker wood rim? Do you like it? I have a 15 inch standard thickness and it feels too big and too skinny.
Thanks Chris Hi Chris, I used (I think) the 26mm polishing wheel on a medium speed, with Meguires all metal polish. Then buff it off by hand My steering wheel is 13inch extra thick grip, and yes I like it, I wouldn't want it any bigger https://www.williamspartsshop.co.uk...ering-wheel---extra-thick-grip-287-p.aspHi Craig, Thanks for your reply and the link to Williams. I think I will go for 13 inch in thick, this will be for a MGB but still think it will suit nicely.
