But this was just my observation and maybe I did something wrong etcetera. Maybe it was skin oil and I used my armrest often so be aware. Also I wished I had just used water on my Mercedes steering wheel and not Leatherique, maybe my imagination but the Leatherique seem to change the feel of the leather steering wheel.
I think the BMW steering wheel is made to be cleaned with water. The steering wheel covering does seem to have some almost magical repair formulation. An item like a steering wheel that when the oil and abrasiveness of your skin smooth the surface that is what is meant to occur. Attempting aggressively or incorrectly to bring the steering wheel back to brand new condition I don't think is worthwhile.
No matter what the product test on the back less seen part of the item at first.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’ll try cleaning the steering again in a warmer climate with water first before trying something else.
