Covering your steering wheel in string

Ive just got home and my wife has wrapped/wound string around the steering wheel.

Looks good. But should it now be coated in something to stop the string slipping?

I've thought about painting a 50% PVA to water mix (with a dash of washing up liquid) over the string.

Has anyone done this string thing?

And can anyone guess how many metres of string it took to cover our thrashed steering wheel?

 

:ttiwwp:

 

17 metres

 

How thick is the string?

 

think i'd have coated it in PVA mix before i wound it on, would be messy but would make sure you get a real good penetration! so start unwinding please and do it all again

 

gaffer tape it.

I'll send her out to unwind it in a minute. >


The tech bit to help with the guessing


It's standard post office string, cost £1.05 per ball. Made by that traditional string manufacturer - Club

 

Mango bay - very poor guess! Try again ;D

 

Is it just the wheel or spokes too,and horn bit? Just trying to find the formula 8) pie d x pie ard squared plus slack and post office stretch, urm tell you in a mo!!

 

24meters

 

Just the wheel spokes are untouched and the centre is now 90% milliput

 

sANDYbAY - incorrect
