Thanks Phil,

The thing that has me wondering is the coat above it. It seems to go

Tan
Medium grey
Slightly lighter grey + yellow flecks (Yellow was her civvy colour)
darker green (Brian's restoration)
Grey
lighter green (later repaint)

I've not seen any sign of red lead, but the metalwork beneath the Tan has a dark finish which could be the remnants of an anti-corrosion finish (I've seen similar darkenned metal on other vehicles)

There's no layer for her in-service as I'd imagined, unless it was the tan or the medium grey (navy?).

I figured she'd have left the factory in SCC15 green but there's not a layer for that....
