Good day all!
Im restoring a Wurlitzer 2500 that was smoked in a bar fire years ago,everything works its just covered in soot. Does anyone know the paint code for the gold that Wurlitzer used on this phono or a similar color?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi RYANMF,

can you specify where the golden colour is, which sections or parts? This might help. Though I doubt someone knows the code Wurlirtzer used back then.
We usually recommend to take a piece with original colour to a professional paint shop and have it mixed especially.

For W2500 right now I only can recall gold on the narrow front glass with WURLITZER logo. But this is not just a paint. It was a colour with real gold content, screenprinted and then burnt into the glass to get the special mirror effect.
