Philco Knob & button cleaning
#12

I also soak mine but in hot water and Dawn followed by scrubbing with a brush and finally steel wool.  The steel wool takes off the top oxidized layers. Then I polish the knobs on my buffing wheel using tripoli polishing compound. Just be careful not to apply too much pressure as the friction can actually melt some plastics.  Lastly I apply carnauba wax for protection.
