Sticky steering wheel buttons

This product is the best to clean the sticky residue off the steering wheel buttons without damaging the white markings.

Apply. Soak for 5 minutes. Rub off. Repeat. Took me 45 minutes on each side as you have to get in and around the sides, the crevices of each button etc.

Time consuming but worth the effort.

I found it online, but the shipping costs as much as the product. Then I called a local music store and they carry it. So I should pick some up this week. What I don't use on the R63 I can use on my Gibson Hummingbird.
