Polishing knobs.
Trying to clean the knobs on my CR100 (I've got 5, I love them) having tried a buffing wheel, T cut and several polishes, a friend gave me (I had better not name it) a car polish with PTFE containing camauba wax and being nonabrasive. Unbelievably the knobs actually looked like new. Good for paint work as well, try it and see.

Re: Polishing knobs.
Thought it may be against the rules. Auto Kit Professional is the name on the bottle. Like all radio collectors I have been polishing for a number of years 50 or thereabouts, it's the best I have ever used.
