Old steering wheel - re-coat or replace?
 

Greetings,

We have an old Boston Whaler (1964 I think), which hasn't been used
much in the last few years.

Getting it ready for use earlier this year I noticed that the steering
wheel was getting my hands extremely dirty. I've come to realize that
whatever coating was on it has started coming off, and the old hard
black rubber is rubbing off on my hands.

Otherwise the wheel looks fine (no cracking detected). Is there a
coating coating I can put on the wheel to make it work for a few more
years? Otherwise I'm considering one of those steering-wheel covers
from AutoZone.

Thanks for any advice,

Rich
