Default Fixing Jaguar's Notorious Sticky Button Issue

Hey Everyone, recently my car has been sitting outside due to some shifts in my garage. This led to my interior buttons becoming sticky from the heat and the outer layer of them melting. I tried multiple different methods but either they are time consuming or a bit too strong where the paint underneath the coating is chipping. I finally came across this solution which literally saved me hours sitting in the car trying to clean and is also very inexpensive.

The solution is to use Lens Wipes. They are also called Pre-Moistened Eye Glass Cleaner Wipes. The ones I used are linked HERE. They are less than $6.00 and they come in a box of 100. I ended up using 6 or 7 to clean my entire AC unit section. It took me around 25 mins and the results are very good. Thought I would share it here so it could save someone the hassle of trying different methods on their car.

Some Pics:

Also adding a video i filmed so you can see results in real time:
