Limestone

Paint codes are LRC007, NCJ or 3307, depending on the paint company

I used Valspar NCJ

Others may be...

PPG Deltron

Thanks. There's a few codes there that I haven't tried!

I have always understood it to be the colour that was the finish inside British WW2 Aircraft Cockpits. Maybe RAAF as well.??

Find yourself a WW2 Bomber Repair Shop & see if there is any still laying around.

I seem to recall seeing a war surplus wing from an unknown aircraft being dismantled here for scrap that appeared to have the same colour, but I suppose that could have been the anti-corrosion (Zinc Chromate) finish for the wing components.

Don't know, but appears to be the same green as I remember, which apparently was Surplus purchased post war by the Wilkes lads as was the aluminium sheet for the S1 Panels.

FWIW..
