I have a steering wheel from the mid 60s that I want to salvage/restore. =
I removed a layer of what I think was electrical tape, then two layers =
of what appeared to be medical tape (the stuff that is reinforced with =
thread/string) then another layer of the electrical tape stuff. What I =
found was a steering wheel with no cracks (sweet!) but now is coated in =
a sticky ass mess. I tried acetone and while it started to cut the =
sticky it really didn't get rid of it all the way. I also really don't =
want to take the chance of damaging the material that the wheel is made =
of.=20



Thoughts please on what might work safely?=20

Thanks

tim
