I will be soon moving to a salted road local and wondered if any amount of WD-40, Salt-Away or teflon spray works to protect the control knob. I'm 7 years into my red and white R-9000's with no problems other than poor exterior paint.

Its not the plastic knobs; its the steel piston/cylinder behind the knobs/knob plate.
The knob plate is easily removable. Some folks have suggested removing the knob plate and packing that volume behind the knob plate with some lithium grease.
