Whale Grey, if I remember correctly. Each railway company generally painted their goods vehicles grey, but used a different grey to any of the others! Rather reminds me of the meeting of Senior Wehrmacht Generals in a Smith and Jones sketch, each doing a piece to camera as they arrive. One says, "I too am a General, but for some reason that is never properly explained, my uniform is a different grey to any of the others".
There is one thing more tedious than watching the damn stuff dry and that is the prolonged discussion about the livery to outshop a project in. At that stage, as the greatly mourned News of the World used to put it, I make my excuses and leave.
