Slippery Club Sport steering wheel

[JM1962]

The leather on my steering wheel is very shiny and not particularly easy to grip. Is there anything that can be done to improve it?

I emailed Jack to get the lot recovered & got this response, but i presume that means he still does the steering wheels

Hi Karl

Thanks for your message. I'm afraid I can't do gaiter at prested. If any changes we'll let you know.
I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

Regards
Jack

The smoothness is due to just the abrasive nature of hands and also body oils/hand cream from your hands.Try a good leather cleaner and also clean after with alcohol cleaner (isopropanol ) which will degrease the surface.This should open the leather a little and will feel rougher.It may need some redying and protecting.
