Color of Luftwaffe field equipment?

I have never read anything definitive on what the color of luftwaffe field equipment, ( carts, engine heaters, aircraft dollys, etc.) was. The same as Wehrmact vehicles, panzer grey. If so did it change to dunkel gelg (dark kyellow) when vehicles did? Some color photos I have seen they look like the dark panzer grey, but we all know old color photos and film type can be deceiving.

Like you said, the colour photos that I have seen, they seem to be dark, so I would think Panzergrau, or maybe Luftwaffeblau.

I was looking at "Air Classics" magazine today, volume 47 number 2 (it has a me-109E-3 on the cover), and on page 24 it shows a Me 109G-14 from 3/JG300, which is late war, and in the background is a fuel trailer that was a very light colour. So it might have painted Dunkelgelb.
