Luftwaffe primer colour?

I am (still) building my Me262 but took a really long break from doing it due to mental health reasons. But i'm getting back to the bench today (yay!).

My question is... What is the colour on the nose section for the putty/primer over the panel lines/rivets? I would have thought it was RLM 02 but the picture looks far too yellow for that.

Any ideas?

Hi Alan

Don't know if you've seen it but Matt McDougall (Doog's Models) did a build similar to this a few years back. He did his primer in a lightish grey and you can read his reasoning for this here https://doogsmodels.com/2014/01/27/132-trumpeter-me-262a-2a-part-iii/
