WURLITZER CALIOLA RESTORATION (Part 19)
ROLL FRAME RESTORATION
by Dr. Bill Black
In this case, the roll frame is in very good condition basically only
requiring some cosmetic work.
PHOTO A shows the frame removed from the Caliola and placed on the work
bench.

In PHOTO B, the frame has been disassembled and the various parts on the
bench.

The parts have been cleaned up, removing the dirt and lubricants
accumulated over the years. The sides of the frame, have been sprayed
with Detail Grey, a product sold by EASTWOOD which produces a nice
finish. PHOTO C.

PHOTO D shows the completed roll frame. Some of the parts are sprayed
with the Detail Grey and some left in the natural metal finish if they
look presentable.
