once they do that the only way to fix it is to replace it. it will keep comming back. i had that problem on my 70. i had to buy a new wheel. be carefull when you buy a used wheel because it might have that same problem. the seller might have just cleaned it off. i think its the plastic going bad. the hand grips on my exercise bike did the same thing, no cure.

Re: C3 Sticky steering wheel!
It's probably the plasticizers oozing out of the plastic as it ages; as you and others say, it ain't going to go away.
Mine was like that when I replaced it for other reasons. The problem with replacing is finding a replacement; Is the C3 steering wheel being reproduced? I snagged an NOS wheel for a replacement nearly twenty years ago, and was told it was getting rare at the time...sounded like seller's remorse for not asking more for it! -
