dash wood feels a little rough after bodyshop repair

My RL's interior smells bad first of all after a bodyshop repaired my car. Some parts of the interior (especially the wood on the dash and my wood steering wheel) however feel "rough" and I was wondering what I should use to clean it off. I think it's probably from the paint solvant from the air. Has anyone encountered the same problem after getting their car back from the bodyshop for painting?

For the wood I ould recommend Zaino PC or Klassee AIO, apply with a soft cloth and then buff the surface for the interior (Auto Internationals Odor Terminator (Valuguard) most odours will be eliminated (http://www.autoint.com) that is non-toxic, non-allergenic, fast acting, without a cover up scent or an offensive perfume smell.

thanks for the suggesion. I got myself some Klasse all in one but I haven't used it yet. I instead used some Mother's claybar and it worked like a charm! I even clay barred my side mirrors to remove water etching and it really worked. I tried anything else but nothing worked except the clay bar.
