Hi Mike,
I am currently restoring a 1942 Willys MB with my dad and he has some old paint tins marked:

Enamel Matt
Khaki Green
M.E. 2010
MIX 307. 6/49
S.A.A. INT. 23.A.
K4/10394

We opened one up and mixed it through and the consistency surprisingly still looks ok.

Where is it possible to get a copy of the RAAF instruction you mentioned "2/20"?

Sorry I'm still new to this and deciphering the forum info, but wondering if this would be a suitable paint for the jeep restoration or what it would suit?

How rare is this paint? Would there be any benefit for the group in sharing samples? Happy to contribute.

Regards,

Chris
