^I wasn't going to bring up PB Blaster, Ron... But I once fixed a scratchy volume control with it. This was on an 80's vintage Sony HiFi preamp that is still going strong in our main sound system. Seemingly, there have been no problems at all, and the pot has remained quiet to this day.
As to the Gozinta, it would be interesting to see a picture of one, to see if it could be replicated. One thing that may prove a challenge, is how to seal the device against the control's threads, and how the design copes with different lengths and styles of control shaft.
Something that bothers me is that one will never now how much fluid reached (and will be trapped) within the control, and that any high viscosity grease used to make controls have a smooth (but not stiff) feel could be displaced.

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
