Hello, 

Hello, after a few weeks the varnish on my steering wheel is sticking/getting tacky from the sweat of my hands. 

here are the products used:

1 X PIGMENT LEATHER PAINT ALL COLOURS - 250 ml

1 X SATIN LEATHER VARNISH - 125 ml

1 X LEATHER NOURISHING OIL - 125 ml 

condition of the surface (steering wheel)

showed surface wear with slight discolouration

Method used

1 a thorough clean with your cleaner 

2 very fine sanding of the whole steering wheel to create grip

3 colouring of the discoloured areas

4 application of one coat of the varnish mentioned above

    Hello,

    The simplest thing would be to talk by telephone to solve your problem.
    However, from reading the method you used, we notice that you did not use acetone to degrease your steering wheel.

    Acetone is the only product specified in our instructions for properly preparing the surface, especially on a steering wheel, which is by far the dirtiest and most grimy part of the vehicle. 
    This is a first lead, but we will narrow it down together by telephone if you are happy to.
