Figured I'd try here before spending weeks wondering if I'd hear back from them... Last time I emailed, it took 6 weeks before I got a response, and it wasn't during their Summer break either. ![]()
Sq2 - Med Beech, Rosewood finish - 10/12/14/16/18/22 + 6.5x14
Performer - Wine Red, 12/13/16/22 + 6.5x14 (D456)
Phonic - Oak, 13/14/16/22
Ok, heard back from Holger Hahn at Sonor (MUCH quicker than I expected) and he confirmed what I suspected - they no longer have the information for those finishes.
So - anyone else managed to figure out any of the older lacquer finish colors? Particularly the Sonorlite Yellow (YL)?
Can't really explain why, but the past few years it's become one of my favorite finishes... ![]()

What's the paint code for pine pollen yellow? I should get my car painted that color for this time of year.
