Use that Autoglym Interior cleaner on the steering wheel, it’s perfect for cleaning steering wheels. Spray the steering wheel generously and use a soft nail brush to agitate the dirt. Then gently wipe around it with a damp clean microfibre cloth… once it’s dry it will feel and look like new 👌 You’ll be shocked how much dirt will come off of it

Wee tip Tim if youre worried about the mid lift rubbing through the wheel cover, stick a thin metal plate on the underside of the cover so when the wheels raised if it catches anything and spins it won't rub through, when I was on timber the boys in tags would do that as it was more of a problem for them with the tags clearance when raised

I would've put anti seize on those new nuts and the wheel hub, since they are Aloy on steel and when they start bonding, they stay on the hub even without the nuts. BTW. colours: the side skirts, fender and wheel liner in the front, the window trimm and grill Black gloss all the Chrome Blue and a Simple wave on the cab in blue and trim lines in the grill and skirt and fenders. Also white lightend Scania bagde and embleme.
