Got so fed up with my shiny steering wheel and sick of feeling wheel envy when peering at new cars!
Tried leather cleaning products which only got back to a silk finish that didn’t last very long. Saw a few detailing videos that recommended using the ‘Magic Eraser’ sponge to lift off those years of oils and dirt.
You still have to clean the clean the wheel first and you have to start gently, regularly drying and inspecting your work so you don’t got too far and start attacking the leather. The sponge is smooth but abrasive and should be used wet. Oh, and please be careful not to rub the stitching - you don’t that to fray.
The results are very good and I kind of feel like my wheel was left looking as it did 14 years ago!
