Scuff on steering wheel

[Booth11]

Has anyone ever used the scuff master kit? I'm weary to use it as it maybe not colour match the rest of the wheel and then I'd have to paint the whole wheel which could have a chance of dyeing the red stitching

I'd avoid re-dyeing the whole wheel at all costs.  Thought you said the mark was still black?  Does it actually need dye/shoe polish then?  Can it not just be massaged out or has it taken some colour off?

Not used the scuffmaster kit but I'm looking at getting some of the Gliptone leather glue as I noticed a couple of little cuts on one of my seats, presumably from a bag strap buckle.  Barely noticeable but now I've seen it!  A tiny bit of glue should sort it and stop it catching and getting worse.

Nah it's not black I thought it was but its not

If you really want to sort it properly, why not contact Gliptone to check if the Mk7 leather colour is available and ask their advice, a pic might be useful.

Failing that maybe you can just 'dirty' the mark with something that will blend in??

[Aitchi]

I'll post a pic for you tomorrow mate! Thanks for all your advice!

[Booth11]

No probs mate, I wait with bated breath for the pic     Is it in a very prominent position?

[Aitchi]

Nah mate it's right on the corner of the door side on the flat bottom of the steering wheel! I've managed to smooth it out but some of th colour has come away! I've ordered the thing u said to order and will possibly try it on the area as it's not very noticeable! But I'll send u a pic tomorrow when I'm back out at car mate!

My boy sunk his teeth into the top of the steering wheel of my old Passat.

Was that because you wouldn't let him eat in the car 

Too right.

And you've never made your daughter stand outside the car to eat a sandwich at the services?

 ......on a regular basis. 

I had a momentary lapse last week, when I allowed her to eat a croissant (yes, a very, very flaky pastry) in the car as it was raining.  I very nearly cried when I saw the mess.  The 'no eating' rule is once again being reinforced with renewed vigour!
