Mike is indeed the man for colours. It is one very complex subject!

Just last week I had a small sample batch of spraying enamel made up to match the original green found in several places on the Scout Carrier.
It turned out to be an Australian standard colour, the details of which I can post up in the next day or so. I simply had the stuff made up with flattener to make it lustreless and also had some made up in aerosol cans because I was too lazy to keep mixing and thinning etc. It's actually a truly awful shade of olive green but I am 100% certain it is the original correct factory finish for this particular vehicle. The aerosol exercise turned out to be VERY expensive and I won't be doing that again in a hurry ! Cheers Phill
