Breguet XIX featured several camouflage patterns. In general they was finished in acetone based French paint Kaki. First coat over the fabric surface was Celon, British product used for preparing of fabric. Then was applied by spray gun one coat of kaki color. That way was used on French delivered samples as well on samples manufactured in Kraljevo. Some samples delivered from French included multi color surfaces and colors used on was post WW 1 derivates. The same colors was Ochre, Green and Brown but without metal pigment in it. Later in the 1938 was again reintroduced colorful camouflage pattern. That was a result of various test made in that year and the colors used on those first trials could not be determined correctly. As well in that moment France include new camouflage chart, it could be possible that these colors was used. Later in the summer of 1940, at least 15 Breguet was overpainted in Kraljevo and got new camouflage. Underside was grey color and on the topside and sides was used patches in Ochre, Green and Brown color.
In whole period until the outbreak of war on wings was carried Yugoslav national insignia in four position. They were of larger diameter. Color used was red, white and mid blue roundel with Kosovski krst [Kosovo's cross] on it. The same cross was outlined in the flag blue color. On rudder was wide flag in national colors. All of this markings was reduced in size and number in order to the new regulations from 1940.
In the similar manner to the French planes, vertical include a number of inscription in black. They provide an information's of the type of airplane, register number and operational weights. On the side of fuselage was applied register number and big unit number, mostly in black or white color. In a period on the bottom of the wings was placed large sign which denoted home air base of the plane illustrated above had large N under the wing which indicate Novi Sad airfield.
