Found this today, http://lifehacker.com/5902793/restore-ugly-faded-plastic-to-its-former-shine-using-vaseline

"Flickr user linux-works discovered, after buying some old audio equipment on eBay, that a simple wash with soap and water didn't do much to help the old, faded, plastic knobs. However, a bit of antibiotic ointment (which uses a petroleum base) shined them right up—see the picture above. The top knobs have been restored, while the bottom knobs were merely washed with soap and water. Just rub it on, leave it for a minute, and wipe it off. "
