Hand Sanitizer

:
2021 Acura RDX
Since it's alcohol based, is it bad to use hand sanitizer on your hands and then drive? I know the steering wheel is leather wrapped, so I don't want to do anything to discolor it, but I tend to use hand sanitizer often. Has anyone had any long-term issues after using hand sanitizer?

My experience is those alcohol based hand sanitizers usually dry out pretty fast. Your hands should be dry once you get into the car. Actually I have similar concern if the hand sanitizer could damage the leather-wrapped steering wheel in the long run. I try to wipe my hand again with paper towel or on my clean shirt if nothing else nearby. ;)
