Funny this is brought up again. I have never had any luck with "rubbing alcohol" but here is the US Isopropyl is common. I am told that Ethyl is more effective, but I have not tried it. Myself, for radio knobs, I pull them off and sand them, then paint matte black. It doesn't have that "tactile" feel but it's fine for me. There is a long discussion of alot of options including where @chill sourced the "tactile" finish: https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107531-What-to-do-with-a-Boom-with-sticky-front-panel Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Redrum's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111663 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list Radio@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
