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:
