It was described by Allied Technical Intelligence Teams as "typical German night camouflage" and seems to have been near-enough universal in the bomber force in the MTO and the West by late 1943–1944. There were apparently no standard colours, just whatever gave a good light on dark (or vice versa) contrast.
