Hi Alan - it was/is actually pale 'sea green'. The marked difference in colour was immediately apparent after I'd removed various pieces of trim etc. [albeit that when replaced they would once again have concealed this]. Certain parts of the case formerly seemed to feature a pale brown varnish-like over-tone subsequent to initial cleaning and prior to Rest-O-Brite treatment. Now - there is very little [if any] discernible difference in shade/colour anywhere on the case.
