Default Colours

Don't want to sound like a cynical person but: WW2 era vehicle colours are open to so many different variables and interpretations , especially back then with their eye matching techniques and the matting agents added into the paint mix. . Would be a nice thing if one paint company had manufactured all of the paint used on British soft skins for the duration but that isn't a likely scenario. I reckon the book is worth having, the more information we have the better, but the book cannot be more than a general guide for restorers.
