Does any one know what the BS ( British standard ) number is for the blue grey paint that was used during WW2 ?

RAF Blue Grey: A dull identification colour used for markings (and vehicles) from 1937 until post-war, when it was replaced by Bright Blue. BS 33 fell from use and was not included in the MoS paint range. There is no accurate match for BS 381C 633. The modern version is far too dark. The closest match to the original BS 33 is the Federal Standard FS595B 35190.
