Default Restoring old black knobs.

I just polished some up with the plastic polish and it really came out
nice, maybe a little too nice. It looks like a brand new knob on 50
year old equipment. I would like something that gets the dirt off but
leaves a little age.

For all my old equipment, I remove the knobs and any screws, then give
them a good cleaning with a tooth brush in warm, soapy water. I use a
mild liquid soap like used to wash cars. They come out very nice
without being "too nice."
