Admiralty Pattern 507B was a glossy formulation containing enamel and in this guise was used from 1936 to 1939. Admiralty Pattern 507A was reintroduced as matt paint from 1939 and remained in the Rate Book of Naval Stores until the 1950s. Use of 507B was suspended from 1940 until 1947 to economise on enamel use and to avoid glare from reflections during wartime.
