I would take some kind of general cleaning solvent to it especially if it is "gunky", you should be able to look at it and see if there is surface residue of some kind. perhaps some 409 or isopropyl alcohol. then armor-all that B****.

If the actual steering wheel is disintegrating, get a steering wheel cover of your choosing, something solid as opposed to a porous one.
