You betcha, kemo sabe. The decks were usually Blaugrau 58.1 (that's Colourcoats KM 12), or sometimes Schlickgrau 58 (Colourcoats KM 11). The underwater hull on the S-100 class was most often Schiffsbodenfarbe III Grau 1 (Colourcoats KM 05); any that had red antifouling would have used Schiffsbodenfarbe III Rot 5 (Colourcoats KM 04). Schnellbootweiss is Colourcoats KM 10.

E-Boat Colours?
Posted by Spurdog on Tuesday, November 25, 2008 9:28 AM

I know that the hull and vertical surfaces of the E-boat were Schnellbootweiss, but what about the deck and other horizontal surfaces? They appear a sort of neutral grey from what I can see from photographs, but I can't be sure. And below the waterline, was it black or hull red?

Anyone from WEM got any suggestions?Wink [;)]
