What makes our buick steering wheels Sticky, and can they, be Cleaned or repaired,.. to be made Un-Sticky...???
Body oils/sweat from hands, plistisizers in the wheel, UV (sunlight), heat and time. It's a bad recipe. I have heard several methods for cleaning. I have one, cleaned it, was not sticky at all, stored in air conditioned house, a year later, sticky again. I think maybe I will try the SEM cleaner (vinyl prep for paint) and then find a sealer (maybe a semi-matt clear) for vinyl product and see it that will work. If not, it will get a black Wheel skin. Other's may have something that worked long term.
Duane explained the sticky situation in a thread on here somewhere. There’s no cure other than cleaning it regularly.
