Re: Natural metal Spitfires.

All Spitfires had been delivered in camouflage, perhaps with exception of post war late Mk 22/24s. There were several Spitfires in MTO with removed paint, for example MJ250 UF-Q in the summer 1944. I cannot say who, when and why but it was apparently such aircraft delivered to 40 SAAF Sqn.
BTW
Have you found any photos or mentions of Polish Spitfires and pilots in Italy?
