Luis, after the black paint had been removed what is the next layer of paints color? Is it a light yellow over green?

Ty,

No from what I can see is kind of a field gray (textured) the inside is smooth green

Id like to ask before you took the black paint off could you see evidence of a decal through the black paint. I just picked up a lot from a US vet that included a german helmet that was painted a gark greenish/black but i see no evudence of a decal. Im debating stripping it.
