question on airliner paints

Boeing grey is a very light grey similar to FS 16515, Xtracolor X150 Xtracolor also make Boeing grey X 301 See

Coroguard is not any one colour. Coroguard is a carrier with a certain amount of aluminium powder mixed into it just prior to application, so each application of the "paint" is unique. In adition, it shows different hues in different lighting conditions. Look at (sorry about the line wrap) Note how the coroguard on the near wing looks dark, while the far wing looks much lighter. Airliners.net is your best resource for what airlinerws look like in the Real World : ) Testors Steel (in the little square bottle) gives a reasonable facsimile of coroguard , but really any bare dark aluminium colour would do.

Decals are available for Corroguard panels, for specific aircraft. Also, Boeing Aircraft Grey is available from a couple of companies (don't recall which - I have a couple of tins from long ago). Check with Russell Brown at Airline Hobby Supplies:
