Hello, just picked up Tasca 35-016 and was going to put it "into Polish service" August '44 Normandy.  Would that have the standard OD or something more Commonwealth?  If regular OD I'd like to spray Tamiya.  If I were to pick up a new bottle of XF-62 would it be the batch that sould be mixed with 1/3 German dark yellow?  How can I tell?

Commonwealth Shermans were built in American factories and painted with American OD.  Unless it went through a major overhaul (such as a Firefly upgrade), your Sherman V would remain in its factory colors.  Your mix ratio is good.  I would do it each time you spray however.  It's not good to mix colors and store them.
