Can anyone help me out with any paint codes for the green colour that the nissen huts were painted at Binbrook and prob the same as most airfields.
Trying to find the code and then possibly a supplier of paint for a project which might be going ahead in the future .
Thank you in advance
Hi binbrook
The BS colour to most airfields and other military establishments is (12 D 45) this is the same colour in what ever manufacturer you use, i know as ive used plenty off it whilst working on various RAF /ARMY sites around Shropshire/Staffordshire over the last 30 years, if you any more info give me a shout
Regards Ian
Hi paul i mean exterior sorry and ian thank you for that .
Wish i could find a out of date stock being disposed of on a base , I dont know what colour would have been used inside .The building was a crew rest room / locker room at binbrook.Been trying to find the layout of how these were during the war and the years after.
Might be looking for some 30ft span nissen hut frames and cladding also maybe.
You can still get the exact colour now from trade centres, otherwise if you know somebody serving on a camp be cheeky and ask them to go down the psa/Doe stores there are normally gallons of the stuff left on the shelves, best of luck
