Well I painted mine black through lack of knowledge I guess. I was pretty sure that the British water cans were black and the pictures I looked at seemed to show them as black, but I didn't know about any grey colour at the time. I'd also like to know for sure. Ron

I have never seen an original black or gray can personally. As suggested previously, in my collection only green or khaki brown. That's not to say that they don't exist though.

Thanks everyone.
If you look higher in the post, you will see that Canadian 2 Gal water cans came in white ( early ) and grey ( late war ). 2 Gal Canadian Petrol cans came in green and maybe tan or sand colour. There was a Red 2 Gal naphta ( white coleman gas ) can. 1 Gal Oil cans came in green and tan . Anyone has seen a tan 2 Gal Canadian petrol can ?
