SOLD 11/5.

I have a steering wheel that I took out our new zhp, I've cleaned it some and it is sort of presentable, definitely will never be "like new", but the texture is there. Could use more gentle cleaning, I am too chicken to proceed with Magic Eraser method. I had to re-use the airbag and I know there was something funky with left side buttons - they were not working right. Buttons themselves have good paint, but there is typical wear of paint where 2 plastic halves meet, only on the lower half under your thumbs. Asking $100 + shipping from 01801. I'll post pictures in a day or 2 if there is any interest.

Thank you.

Hide the magic eraser! Here are two Alcantara cleaning resources. You can also use diluted Woolite:

This. Magic Erasers are a micro abrasive. Plus I'll trust just about anything Larry Kosilla says.

Thanks.

Magic eraser was only used to get the initial crust off the steering wheel - it was disgusting!
