Dark Tarmac
Gina
Have you found a actual colour sample of Dark Tarmac No. 4 ? Im sure my Morris PU was painted with that disruptive colour 'DT #4 , traces of a very dark green, almost black green ( possibly dark tarmac ) are seen over a lighter green .

Mike that file contains a colour swatch.
Its the very last page in the file. The colour is of course no good on a computer but you could visit the file in Melbourne and look at it. I hope to get a spectrograph of it when I can organize a meter. It was very very dark nearly black with a greenish tinge Last edited by Mrs Vampire; 19-02-15 at 22:29.

Now this is absolutely startling in terms of approved colours and vehicles so treated!

Camouflage paint file with samples has now been scanned and is available online as a PDF ( MP508/1 controll 305/733/244 bar 3367609 )
The colours look quite nice , I think they have done a good job of scanning them. Although not suitable for colour matching ( they are somewhat darker than the original and screens being what the are and printers adding to the disparity ) its a good file. This is one of three sample sets in public hands. I hope at some point to manage to get a spectrometer measurement from all three. Keith web has put a photo up elsewhere ( Facebook :/ ) showing KG2 the Khaki green J in this file ,when viewed in the flesh , is about the same as that sample (KG2) . In the archive scan it looks closer to KG3 such is the problems with scanners etc..The printed copies they sent me are even darker. http://recordsearch.naa.gov.au/NAAMedia/ShowImage.asp… Last edited by Mrs Vampire; 05-03-15 at 21:50.

Mike it is available using the link I posted previously I can pvt you the link or the pdf if you want.
But the file is on the Archives of Australia web site as a pdf if you search bar code 3367609 that will find it . Because the PDF is in colour it is quite large for an archives file and not able to be stored on this site.
