great idea thanks...and I agree that the wear is often caused by lotions and such.
on a side note, kind of embarrassed to share, but I hate it when my steering wheel gets sticky and there's build up(to the point where I rub my steering wheel down daily w/cleaner/conditioner) So I swtiched hand lotions from vaseline to cetaphil and lo and behold no more buildup or sticky wheel. Told you it was embarrassing
