After a few years of use my wheel has started to fade up top where the sun beams on it. I'm not sure if its from the sun or the moisture of my hands that may have contributed to this. Do you guys have any idea how I can fix this or a reputable steering wheel cover I can wrap around it? I think I have mild OCD because its really bothering the s*it outta me!!!

 

Me tooo!!!!

 

on another forum, people sweared by this stuff, even on steering wheels.

Make sure it is not sweat. It can look really nasty as if it were worn out leather. I had this on a couple cars I bought that cleaned up with soap and water.

 

Every few months I go over my wheel and seats with a soft toothbrush and soap/water-basic old dawn and water mixed. Leather comes out like new each time. Not sure if you leave it out in the sun all day you would want to use product that protects uv like basic lexol leather cleaner or protectant however I dont like these on my wheel so not sure what I would do here. But start with a cleaning

 

same thing here. it looks like the leather is fading away. its slight but still bothersome.
my guess is it was caused my the moisture from my hands and not using a leather conditioner/cleaner religiously on the steering wheel.
i do treat the steering wheel now. hindsight is 20/20
let me know if you find a half decent steering wheel cover. short of replacing the whole steering wheel i think we are shit out of luck.

 

mine is like that on the very top

 

I've been using 303 Cleaner and Protectant on my 01 E39 since new. I use it on all of the leather, vinyl, rubber, and plastic. No fading or deterioration anywhere.

Great product IMO.

 

Yea my front windshield is now tinted so sunlights isn't beaming as much into my interior. I constantly wipe everything down and provide leather treatment to my interior as well. I'll see what I do because its really irritating. Thanks for the feedback!

 

also mine like that plus my car always park inside the garage
