I was reading in another blog that inox is not good for EVA knobs and grips, been using inox for a few years now with out any issues. I’ve just upgraded the knobs on my spinning reels to round EVA knobs, so don’t want to have any issues.

Any of you had problems Inox on EVA.

 I've been using Inox to clean all my reels and rods.  I simply spray it on a cloth and rub.  There are no issues as far as I can report.

I keep inbox away from my handles after having to replace one on a Stella reel. 
It got sticky. I still use it everywhere else.

Yes agree I’m not going to use any solvents or oils on EVA grips or knobs, just hot soap and water.

Just a light spray of tackle guard on the reel but not the handle.
