I can't point you to a specific shade of grey for the hull, but looking at a broad spectrum of pictures, from the late 1880s Garibaldi to the dreadnoughts up to the Caracciolo class, Italian cruisers and battleships of that period had entirely wooden decks. Destroyers are a different matter, as are the reparation cruisers (ex-German).
