Shyster Paint Manufacturer

Hi all,
Do you recall a few years back there was a sort of scandal surrounding
one of the major paint manufacturers whose "brilliant white" turned to a
sort of sepia/magnolia shade in a matter of a few months. I'm about to
buy a large amount of brilliant white and want to avoid the ******s that
made the bad stuff (and refused to compensate those who used their rotten
old paint in good faith). I *think* the guilt party was either Crown or
Dulux but can't recall which - if either. Can anyone help me out here?
cheers,
cd.
I'm not sure that the moniker "shyster" is fair. As I understand it, with
brilliant white paint, UV exposure is important. Paint not exposed to UV
light yellows. It's in the nature of the stuff.
