Bought a second hand M-Sport MFSW on here and am in the process of refurbishing it. Wasn't in too bad a condition, Standard rubber coating was starting to come away, and the leather was very dirty and quite cracked along the top of the wheel.



After reading a few threads on here, I'm experimenting with the plastics.
First tried using Dunlop 65 citrus oil (guitar fret board cleaner), which is good at making things less sticky, but didn't touch the sides with removing the rubberised coating these plastics come from the factory with.
Then onto using some IPA and much rubbing. Seems to be working but is a slog. Also finding it difficult to get in the crevices to remove the rubber in there too. My plan is to remove the coating, prime and respray all plastic parts with matt black.
Any tips to make the removal any easier? Picture below showing half and half.
