Fairy is a potent detergent, so it works here to break up the oil deposits from the hands of people who have touched the wheel. You can also use this technique on leather steering wheels. Only a small drop of Fairy is required. For alcantara an old toothbrush 🪥 will work better at working in the detergent than a microfiber cloth
I use Dettoll and a wire brush, it's the same method I use for sprucing up my ball sack. I use a separate brush for my sack though, I'm not an animal...

Thanks a lot it worked. I have the thrustmaster 599xx evo wheel . I used it for 3 years without gloves so it was pretty dirty. In about 30 minutes of rubbing it looked like it was brand new. I definetly recommend this method over the special cleaning products as it saves money and time .

Is Fairy the same as any quality dish soap? My alcantara wheel is stock in my car and I want to restore it. In Sweden we have Yes dish soap, it's really thick and lasts ages. Do you think I can manage not to remove my wheel? I also have buttons on it so it's gonna be a looong day removing it all.

@@RuskiWeldFab I should've mentioned that "Yes" is a brand we have, English isn't my first language so just want to make sure we both mean regular dish soap. Probably the most concentrated dish soap in the world. 1 litre have lasted me 2 years. I think I will put some plastic over the buttons. I know water and electronics don't mix. But I'm always cautious wrenching on cars, especially on my dream car. I work with trains, trust me when I say you have to be violent, you go for a sledge hammer directly or a 1" pneumatic two hand wrench and they usually don't break when water gets on circuit boards or 3 phase stuff like inverters or converters, transformers or transducers :'D I appreciate your reply, cheers from Sweden 🇸🇪!
