Such a terrible shame that that you’ll have to go buy an orange amp.
i recommend something from the custom shop. It’s what she deserves.
It"s just not worth the grief & if I can keep her happy about the amp there is more chance of me getting another guitar that I have my eye on
I am going to have a go at changing the colour scheme of the Katana & if that fails she will only have herself to blame when I have to go out & blow some more money on an Orange.
She"s having a new 3 piece suite what more does she want.

Technically it's red according to Roland, but it is quite an orangey red...
Or ask someone like Zilla Cabs how much it would cost to re-cover/grille the Katana professionally.

Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
Roqsolid will only do covers in black with coloured piping which means that the cover would still be 99% black.
I have shown Mrs b a picture of one with orange piping & she wasn"t taken with it.
My options therefore are to attempt recovering it myself which I don"t really want to do, or to buy a combo the correct colour.
I think I can feel some Orange combo shopping coming on
As Mrs b has the lounge decor & furnishings completely changed every spring I suppose that means that I get a new combo every year
My other half does soft covers, curtains etc and has made pedalboard bag & amp head cover for me in double quick time. If they can make vinyl cushion covers for instance this sort of thing'd be simple enough.
Some of the farm it out to a maker, go to the source, with luck there'll be one localish. Best let them do any measuring.
I haven't tried it on a cab, but I have on numerous other things of value, not least my car. It sprays on like a paint, but forms a vinyl layer once dry. It peels off with no residue when you want to remove it.
It isn't the most durable of finishes as it is quite soft, but if you aren't planning on moving it around a lot so it wouldn't get dinged it might be worth the (ish) tenner for a rattle can and do a test patch on the underside of your Katana. It would only rip like tolex would rip I'd have thought.
Also comes in a huge range of colours to please Mrs B!
