Default 2 Gallon Water Cans

Yes, colours were standardized. Originally water cans were white with black lettering, this was changed in 1943 to grey with white lettering although you will see both types in use up to the end of WWII.

Petrol Cans were khaki drab with white lettering. I don't know if they were ever manufactured in stone colour for the desert.

Here is a Canadian manufactured Water can for the Russians.
