I am finishing up three BF110s, 1 C and 2 Gs, and the interiors seem to be a light to mid-gray. Was it a standard RLM color?

I think you're looking for RLM 02.

Hi Bill

see Daniels Bf 109 build thread for discussion about interior colours. The cockpit can be 02 or 66 .. the Bf110Gs are petty sure 66, early Cs 02

cheers

Steffen

Hmmmm.

The photos of the interior of the only surviving BF110 G at the RAF Museum show a dark gray/black interior walls with light gray floors and seats.

As Steffen mentioned, the earlier C variant used a RLM 02 interior while the later G variant used the dark grey RLM 66.

What would that light gray be, then, for the seats? RLM 02?

Hi Bill,

I agree with Steffen and Hermann, 02 for Cs and 66 for Gs. Donīt pay much attention to the museums colours, sometime they donīt represent the real one.
The seats are from the same colour than the cockpit, 02 and 66 respectively
