Installation notes
Thoroughly prepare surface and prime with suitable primer. Paint may be thinned if necessary with max. 10% xylene or synthetic enamel reducer. Apply at room temperature in well-ventilated area. Several thin coats give better results than one thick coat. Drying time between coats: 15-20 minutes depending on temperature.
Compatibility

Historical context
Lustreless Olive Drab was standardised in October 1940 as Quartermaster Colour No. 22 for all new military vehicles from fiscal year 1941. The matt finish offered better camouflage than the earlier gloss variants and became the standard for tactical vehicles throughout the Second World War.
