Color code for Phone Dial wheels

Does anyone know the official color code for Phone Dial wheels?

Also, just out of curiosity, what is the difference between silver and platinum - I have a platinum credit card and it's about as silver as silver gets.......just wondering.

The paint used for Chevy Rally wheels looks close to the silver to me, but my wheels were so badly weathered before I started on them that I don't know how close I really got.

I'm not sure. Why don't you send me that platinum credit card and I'll compare it to my silver one and report the difference!

Wurth makes a paint for phone dials. Almost exact match

You are assuming that my platinum card has open-to-buy (good luck).
