Bridge plate

I am aware that bridge plates went grey ca. 1977 presumably the same time that green/black cam was introduced. My question is what shade of grey was it, and is there a reasonable approximation to it available in Halfords?

AFAIK  -  nothing  'mandatory'   , just any grey   -  I would go for Dark Admiralty Grey .   I tend to vary with near shades of grey when painting rainwater guttering & down-pipes  (just a single coat of gloss every time , a different shade helps avoid  holidays  ).

Closest, and easiest to hand, is grey primer. Matt, of course.

And if you want it gloss then jeust overspray with Gloss varnish.
