Cushion grip steering wheel issue
 
I have an original black cushion grip steering wheel that keeps getting "greasy" on the rubber surface. I clean it off, but then it comes back. I think that this has been discussed before - any fixes for this problem?

Lacquer thinner.

If you use lacquer thinner, just be careful not to leave it on too long/wipe too much as it will smooth the grain out. I think enamel reducer works well too. I have used orange hand cleaner with pretty good results but it leaves fine scratches.

Dawn dishwashing detergent works well on this too.

OK - thanks. I tried mineral spirits. It's not greasy (for now). I hung it back on its spot on the wall....... to be continued.

Gritty fast orange hand cleaner, works unbelievable.

I second the rubbing or denatured alcohol -
here is a 69 dash pad which was incredibly sticky... used the same procedure on 70-up GM 4 bar steering wheels.
