I'd say closer to vomit I have a couple boxes with 100s of knobs in each. It's pretty nasty when I need to go searching in them.

Once I get them all cleaned up, I going to try some simple treatments like Novus #1 and furniture polish. I'm a little leary of using something with a solvent like lacquer has cause it might melt the plastic surface.
