Responsibility details are not available.
Olive is a color you meet in civilian service more often than you would expect. Retired trucks, tankers, off-road specials and trailers end up with construction firms, fire brigades and private owners, and they rarely get a new coat of paint; they go on running in the original olive, only with the markings covered over and a new company name on the door. This dark olive tone with a brown cast is exactly right for models of that kind. The number in the name refers to the American Federal Standard color standard.
The difference between a service vehicle and a machine in civilian hands is not in the color but in the story on its surface. Suggest the painted-over markings with a rectangular patch noticeably richer than its surroundings; fresh paint over a faded finish always shows. Add mismatched parts: a different door, a different mudguard, a different shade after a repair. Rub the edges of the hood and the frame back to bare metal and load the lower parts with dust in the color of the surface the vehicle drives over. It is exactly that lack of uniformity that tells a civilian machine from a carefully maintained one.
For modelers of utility vehicles and for the authors of dioramas who want to capture machines in the second, less presentable phase of their life.
Store the paint out of the reach of children and work in a well-ventilated space.
