I can't help you at all, I'm afraid. The web is awash with WW2 RN colour info, but there's next to nothing for this period.  :((

Thanks Jonty, must give them a ring tomorrow. I was given a ships trophy model as a kid painted in that colour, but my brother inlaw said he could refurbish it for me, but unfortunately he repainted it light grey. Seem to remember it was similiar to the Norwegian gunboat colours of today??
