CS alcantara steering wheel.
« on: 21 May 2019, 20:01 »
After a couple of years or so my CS steering wheel was starting to look a little shiny and dirty in places so I did a bit of research on a good alcantara cleaner and came up with this stuff to try.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BBWJ16U/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I forgot to take any before shots but anyone else out there with a CS will know what they start to look like after a while. I gave it a good dose of this stuff well rubbed in and left it for a short while, I then gave it a rub with a clean microfibre cloth and left it to dry.

The results were very impressive, i'd recommend it to others with a CS...  :smiley:

You don't need any special cleaners.

Product and video both good finds. My dad has a Juke nismo rs with an alcantara interior which is quite hard to keep. These will definitely be useful :)

They're just a Nisssan Micra in a Sumo Suit. Got to be the ugliest car in current production. That Nismo engine is seriously low on torque for the BHP.
