I am pretty much done with a nice espresso E330 but the knobs rubber coating is all cracked. Im too cheap to pay big bucks for new knobs from my profit category so I am trying to salvage the old knobs. The old rubber chips right off of the top of the knob where the sun backed it but the rubber holds on tight on the bottom of the knob. See in the pic under this rubber is good lookin clean plastic. Any suggestions for removing the rest of the stubborn rubber bits without scratching the good plastic underneath? I was thinkin heat gun but that could get squirrely fast. My other thought is dremel tool but with what attachment?
Next question....I was talkin w another resto guy about old school 1000's and such......some how in the conversation regulators came up. I just wanted to check here to see if I understood correctly. Do the older 1000's or 3000's use a different regulator that pumps out more BTU's? As I recall for my current resto on my 3000 which I have not fired up yet I just used a 11ws standard reg on it. If it takes a diff reg can u guide me to which one it takes please? I mean they are diff deeper cook boxes w 13 bars so this does make sense.
Thanks
