Loose wiggly pots?

[gutsofgold]

I order all my pots from small bear and most of them have a fairly good turn resistance (they are kind of hard to turn, thus less likely to move accidentally). Some, however, are REALLY REALLY loose. To the point where giving a good knock on the enclosure will actually move the pot.

Is there anyway to compensate for this? A way to make it harder to turn? I'm asking because I'm on the road now and my AMZ Miniboost has one of these extra wiggly pots and its always moving when it shouldn't. Thanks!

  Felt Ring or rings, installed under the knob [round knob or small ring...
  Then you can adjust the 'resistance' tension with the knob height, pin the felt between the knob and the top of the enclosure.
  Alternative material could be used, felt is the good old school stuff.
  I did that on my strat [jheez I was ALWAYs turning that sucker down by picking accident before I installed the felt pad under the knob.

Most knobs have a sort of grease gunk between the bushing and the shaft that makes a little friction and a stiffer knob movement.
I've heard of dipping the bushing/shaft in acetone just enough to get the gunk wet and disove it a little.
This would obviously make the shaft turn more freely.
Since most pots shafts/wafers aren't replaceable this isn't an option....
Not much help huh?

The felt idea should work.
Most craft shops sell different colors or it...not that you will see it.
