Start with the best leather cleaner you can find and go from there. If it doesn't come off you may need to redye the wheel. It could be as simple as the oils of the previous driver's hands causing discoloration, it could be from sun (UV) exposure or it could be a mold type growth. What you need to determine during the cleaning process is if it a surface problem (growth) or is actually in the leather like a stain or color change. drgolden2001 wrote , ----On 8/10/2013 2:53 PM ---------------------------: > > We are in the later stages of restoring a 1981 DMC.
