Information	Based on our own extensive research using primary source reference material, we offer our new Royal Navy range - the most accurate on the market bar none. This shade was introduced in April 1943 as part of the B&G series. It simultaneously replaced both Western Approaches Blue and Western Approaches Green. No evidence exists to suggest there was ever more than a single formula for B55, however it is uncertain if the Royal Navy and Royal Canadian Navy users always ended up with the same shade. Some sources portray a brighter shade more reminiscent of the earlier Western Approaches blue and green, whilst others reveal a weaker less saturated impression. We offer this alternative to modellers either to use on its own or to mix with NARN40 to achieve a "scale effect" whilst still preserving the correct 55% LRV tone.

** Colour renders given above are for guidance only - differences in colour space models for physical paints versus illuminated pixels on screen and limitations of conversions between models means that what you see on your screen cannot be used for colour matching purposes. An accurate colour can be found sprayed on each tin lid and within the tin. **

Colourcoats are available in 14ml as standard. 125ml or larger quantities are available on request.
