When I get "round tuit", I'm going to have to strip the cabinet of a Murphy A272C console; the varnish has had it.
Unfortunately, as those familiar with these sets will know, Murphy applied a gold stripe to top and bottom.
I fear this will not survive varnish remover...
This begs the question, what to replace it with?
Any thoughts?

N.B. The image is a stock one, not my receiver.
