Response to Whither 112 and RAF markings.

Thanks for your very helpful reply.
I never realised that manufacturers of paint reformulated their products every now again, rendering carefully researched mixes no longer correct. Sneaky, what?
The bit about the RAF roundel is fascinating and could potentially be quite helpful in dating some images as being pre or post May '41 (in Britain, I must presume that getting the updated look took longer in the Middle and Far East). I'd just assumed that those vehicles lacking the roundel were not properly painted or just rarely left their airfields and so didn't need a roundel!
Thanks once more for your efforts on our behalf; not knowing what is right is the easy way out, but actually having the knowledge there means you should at least try to do it correctly.
John
