Hoping someone can help.
My car has covered 50k miles and I have recently noticed that the leather on my steering wheel feels sticky.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so what is the best way to clean it?

Use some leather cleaner like Autoglym leather cleaning balm or Gliptone leather cleaner

Thanks for the reply Cuprabob.
I have Autoglym leather cleaner so will give it a go this weekend.
Should I apply leather balm afterwards or just use the cleaner?

You don't need to use much either, else it gets stuck in the perforations and it's a b***h to get out!
