Sorry, John, but the green film is exactly that. It's an anti-corrosion plastic film that's sprayed on to the completed airplane to protect the skin if the airplane is going to be flown before it gets its airline paint scheme. It's soluble in a special soap-based wash-off that is used in the paint hangar before they start to do the airline decor. It's a completely different kind of green than zinc chromate. After the wash-off the skin is back to being "aluminum colored".

I saw a lot of "green" airplanes being flown away from Boeing at the height of the Business Jet program. They were painted in the customers' exterior decor schemes by the vendors that did the interiors.
