What is the shade of color for Canadian Naval Ships? It could be considered gray or grey, but it has a greenish hue to me. Much lighter shade than USN Haze Gray.

It may be "501-109" grey, which started out being called "Grey 1-2" and has been used by the Canadian Navy for ship sides for a long time. It's FS16480.

I was asked for this a while ago in the UK. It's been a long time since WEM last made it and certainly we received no stock when we took over.

We've got the formula though and through some changes we've made to the way we work, it's feasible to make another run of these. I'll maybe add it to the "to do" list.
