Leather steering wheel care?
One thing i can't stand is when a leather wrapped steering wheel gets burnished and shiny. What can i do to preserve the matte finish and smooth feel of a new leather wrapped Momo steering wheel?

I'm guessing it has something to do with the amount of oil in your hands too. I know my plastic gearknob gets shiny and dull periodically as I have varying things left on my hands when I get into the car.

My leather shift knob is smooth and polished (vs. textured and dull when new) and I really like the way it slides in my hand as I shift gears. I guess it's a matter of personal preference but I like it. The plastic steering wheel starting to fall apart, I don't like.
