"Adding grip" to steering wheel

[MegaDeath]

Hockey tape works really well.

Thanks for all the great answers! I had a feeling that skateboard grip tape wouldn't be a really good solution, but it's always nice to have some confirmation.

I'll look into the different kinds of tape, actually we have some baseball teams over here so I may be able to get in touch with some of them. The fabric-and-glue-method is really interesting, since we have some members with a bit of fashion design education who'll might be able to make something cool out of it.

I know im digging up a grave here, but in the future, consider plastidip. It comes in two forms, liquid and spray. for this application i would go with liquid. Just dip the areas you want to be grippy, or even paint it on with a brush. The stuff is commonly used to recoat tool handles, as well as ricy wheels

I don't know about the liquid plastidip but the spray on will last for awhile and then peel off from use.
