Anyone fixed the laquer coming off the steering wheel volume etc buttons problem?

The laquer is coming off mine and is sticky and annoying.
Any good ideas?
I've thought of cleaning/sanding them then relaquering...but which products to use?

Use a blunt instrument, finger nail, and remove it all. That's what I've done. Perfect!

There were some for sale on ebay the other day, the seller had a selection of various control buttons for the steering wheel, think he was asking about £12

EDIT: here you go.....

Really pi$$ed me off too!
As already stated use fingernail or get the Mrs. to do it with those long ones they usually have stuck to the ends of their fingers.

Mmmm, thats 2 saying the same thing, I didn't think it would peel off very easily.
It looks more liquid/sticky rather than solid on mine, I thought I would have to sand it off or use a solvent.

I'll have another look.

It does and it's very therapeutic strangely...

I used rubbing alcohol which seems to do the trick. It's just a very tedious job.
