[Milsurplus] Navy grey (gray?)...what color is it...really...

[Kenneth G. Gordon]

I am trying to match the paint on some receivers I am restoring and am 
having difficulty matching the color. It really looks to me as though their 
is a very slight greenish or yellow-green tinge to it. I know that there is 
no zinc chromate under this particular paint as I have checked that 
aspect.

However, was there ever really a standard for that grey (gray?) color? If 
so, what might it be called in modern colors?

Also, isn't it likely that the paint will have changed color in the past 30 
to 60 years just from "mellowing" with age?

Any help gratefully appreciated...
