There's not much you can do if it is printed on the can, you can try small
claims court depending on the amount of damages and see what the courts say.
Go to www.troubleshooter.com where you can expose to the country these shady
business practices. This is a radio program that works on and off the air to
solve consumers problems, they may have some suggestions or even put one of
their attorneys on it. If nothing else you can bring this to the attention
of thousands of people as you are doing here and possibly hurt their sales
for some satisfaction. The Troubleshooter may have other people with the
same issue or people can call in with their complaints about this. It's a
pretty effective way to get results.

Finished major job and the paint failed. Remodeled kitchen and
bathrooms less than 6 months ago. All surfaces were sanded and primed
with Kilv. Painted "new" cabinet doors (27), kitchen & bathroom
cabinets, baseboard/trim, wood "room entry " doors (2), metal louvered
doors (2) with "Glidden Gloss White Commercial Grade Enamel;
Interior/Exterior Ultra Hide Oil Alkyd Gloss; GL 3518-0100 White". The
existing paint on the trim was Benjamin Moore Oil base enamel
(confirmed w/ receipts and "paint-can" before beginning project). All
painted surfaces including the paint running down the front of the can
has yellowed! There are no smokers in the house. The air conditioning
or heat is running at all times depending on the season. Urgently need
to know if other folks have same results with the Gliddin Ultra Hide
Oil Alkyd Gloss white paint. Before beginning the project, the cabinet
maker and I discussed the surfaces to be covered with Home Depot paint
department employee who advised this was the best paint to use for
each surface and recommended to prime with Kilv. Now the Glidden
Representative says if there is not sunlight in the house the paint
will yellow. How can a product be legally labeled "Interior /
Exterior" when the sunlight is not shining in houses on baseboard,
cabinets, doors, etc. and artificial lights are not on in every room
24/7? Representative also referred me to label on can in small print
that states "Important: Alkyd or oil-based enamels may yellow in time
in the absence of light, especially sunlight." (Is this "may" to be
intrepreted as "will"? Is "in time" to be intrepreted as immediately?
The painting was completed Nov 2003 which is less than 6 months! I
certainly appreciate a few minutes of your time if you will please
email me @ and post to this news group any suggestions
and/or like circumstance you are aware of. Thank you very much. . jhs
