Google "paraffin gun".
ok will do,
I have one of those, used for cleaning full-size engines, and in the right lighting anything sprayed from it will look white.

A scene from a field workshop before the tanks went to the front line in Normandy. You can see the crewman on the upper hull is holding the same spray gun.
Do be very careful when trying to interpret 70 year old photos because without any provenance to back them up, we can only guess at who or what they are.
Here's a picture of Annalise

It doesn't help that some old monochrome film didn't reproduce colours in the appropriate shades of grey, so for example red comes out as white.
it is so hard to work out,the color,but one thing we do know is she was sprayed,white,in Normandy,before moving to hungary,It doesn't help that some old monochrome film didn't reproduce colours in the appropriate shades of grey, so for example red comes out as white.

Not in Normandy. Annalise was taken back to Germany for repairs, sprayed white in the factory.
Only 50 Tiger Bs with Porsche turrets were built, including 3 prototypes. All that served in Normandy were destroyed, apart from Annalise.
