Does anybody know of anything that can be used to make something more resistive as in the opposite of lubrication.

The problem is a dial on my guitar effects pedal has come loose and turns too easily. I need something to make it more firm while still able to turn??

Any suggestions?

(Preferably something that can be purchased locally or some common household material Smile)

Are you talking about a control such as a rotating switch or a volume control?

Sounds like either a worn out control or it may simply be a physically loose control/potentiometer/switch?

While there is a type of lubricant used on slider controls (such as mixer boards/etc) to give it a smooth, "cushiony" operation---- not aware of any application or need for such a resistive substance?
