I know I am going to have a difficult time trying to describe this, so please bear with me. I have a 2002 Accord coupe. The center of the airbag cover in the center of the steering wheel has come to feel "tacky". I am able to run my fingernail across it and scratch some off. It has become very soft. I know it is a sort of paint/coating they put on the plastic in the car, but I don`t know what it is in order to repair it.

This has happened before to the center console between the seats. I removed all the old paint/coating and re-sprayed it with trim black paint. It came out great, however it seems more plasticky now, and lacks the "rubbery thickness" that was originally on it.

I hope somebody knows the feel of this paint/coating that I am talking of, and even better knows what it is and how to get it.

As always, any help is appreciated!
