[W126 Coupe] Off Topic - 2006 S500 4matic

[Eddie]

If that doesn't work, I've got a steering wheel off of a 2005 s500 for sale.
$50?  It should be an easy bolt on bolt of situation.

Hi Elm:

Go to a quality car upholsterer, one that does Benz, Bentley, etc. and have
them redye or respray the steering wheel. Comes out like new. The dye is
just worn off from use. They can color match the shade exactly.

Regards,

Joe

All,
It's been a while since I've last posted (family, career and 3 kids in
college tend to put a damper on 'toy time') but I know you guys can help me
out on this.

I just bought my wife a 2006 S500 4matic and the previous owner was female
and as such I need some advice on how to clean make-up stains off the sun
visors? 
What cleaners can I use on the visors and headliner that won't stain the
light gray material?

Also, the ash leather steering wheel needs reconditioning. I can't tell if
the gray is worn off or if there is just a layer of make-up and skin oils
built up on the wheel (it has the heated wheel option). What can I use to
clean it first to determine if it's just gunk or worn off?
What would be the best product(s) to use to recondition the leather wheel if
in fact the gray is worn off?

I'm jealous of those of you going to Longboat in a couple of weeks- The wife
and I still talk about the wonderful time we had and the great people, food,
drink and atmosphere at the Mar Vista! We hope to be able to join you guys
again in the future.

Thank you again for your time and advice!
