TC Aug.1946

Post by HANS HOLTMAN » Thu Mar 09, 2000 5:50 am

The bulkhead of my TC 1095 from 1946 is going to be painted (according to the books) light grey.I have a number for this light grey. Nobody knows this number here in Denmark. -Does anybody here know the international codenumber , RAL, for lightgrey? This is for the bulkhead- NOT the engine.

Hope someone can help.

It is my understanding and please note the use of the word UNDERSTANDING
just in case someone wants to start another long debate..that the grey
used on both the fire wall and the engine was battleship grey originally
purchased after the war from Government surplus supply. To my knowledge
there never was a code for this and it varied in colour from batch to
batch.

Regards Geoff
