Gold paint for W.B. 610

Post by Ron Danly » Fri Apr 04, 2008 6:57 pm

Can anyone help with a good color match for the original gold paint on a West Bend 610? This motor was subjected to a red paint job long ago. Some original gold still exists but the whole motor needs a good resto. Was hopng to find paint before I start making powder coat inquiries. Thanks - Ron Danly

Try Plastikote # CC 9076 or Dupli-color # T291 Harvest Gold Metallic.

Ron-

I've always had good luck with the Dupli-color Harvest Gold Metallic- I use a light grey primer/filler under it.

Good luck,
Dean
