Philco Knob & button cleaning
#13

For knobs in really bad shape, I basically do what Steve does except I start with the fine wire wheel on my grinder. It can get into the cracks and is fast. Any of this rough treatment requires polishing afterwards. If you use this technique, move quickly. Bakelite is very tough, but if you put too much pressure or stay too long you can burn it.
