Steering Wheel Paint

I have a near perfect steering wheel in the 68 we bought, no cracks or anything like that, just needs painted. What would be the best paint for a steering wheel? Krylon Fusion with some Epoxy clear? Thanks for any help

Re: Steering Wheel Paint

I use acrylic enamel single stage with flex additive and hardener. Rattle can would work fine, it just won't be real glossy and durable. If you're ok with that then shoot it with an etching primer first, and spray away. Duplicolor makes a great rattle can etch.
