McIntosh C-28 knobs


Soooo… recently did a bulb switch and cleaned the pots on my McIntosh C28 and MQ 101

figured I would clean the knobs in my electrostatic cleaner and the knobs (C28) all turned black and can’t seem to clean them back to original. Any ideas on where to acquire a new set?

Ryan Kilpatrick is the go-to guy for parts there.  If anyone has them, they will.

BTW, you say an electrostatic cleaner?  I'm not 100% sure, but I believe most plated knobs are electro-plated.  If so, you likely broke the ionic bonds between the plating material and the knob surface.  The knobs would have to be re-plated.
