Is there a third-party replacement for the knobs on a Marshall effects pedal?
I've got a few Marshall effects pedals (e.g. the Vibratrem VT-1) and I love them, except for the terrible design of the knobs. They've got a shiny chrome, dome-shaped top with a small black mark which wears off after time, meaning it becomes impossible to read them especially in any dark room. I've searched in vain for replacement knobs with a different design. My understanding is that the shaft is a different size/shape to Boss pedals so Boss knobs wouldn't be compatible.
Is there a third-party knob out there which will fit my Marshall pedals and be easier to read?

AFAIK there are only two standards for potentiometer shafts. This means the diameter can be metric or imperial. (6 mm metric if i recall) most pot shafts are both slotted and ribbed(?) to fit many different knobs. Some knobs have a screw that you can tighten to forcefully hold them on to the shaft. Electronics suppliers will carry a selection of knobs, as will some musical instrument dealers.
Of course the simple answer is to take a sharpie to it or glue on some dots that stand out against the chrome.
