[ARC5] Removing Knob White Stuff?

[Mike Everette]

Try using a penetrating oil like WD-40, Liquid Wrench or PB Blaster.
Wipe it on the knob with a cloth dampened in your favorite elixer, then scrub-n-rub.  It won't hurt metal or bakelite knobs, but be a little cautious with plastic ones, especially when using PB Blaster.  Also, PB Blaster should be used with plenty of ventilation, preferably outside.

That white stuff that slimes over some knobs after years of storage--how is that best removed?
