I hadn't either. I have the expoxy sitting in the garage and planed to use it when I came across a article about repairing the steering wheels with body filler. It stated as long as the cracks weren't big are all the way through to use filler so I decided to try it. None of the cracks were that bad just wanted it to look cleaner.
First time fixing a wheel so we shall see how it goes.
