Well, you'll be pleased to learn this is as it has always been w/ base
for tint--there's room left to make the full gallon w/ the tint.


Well you'll be sorry to learn this. The tint base was 3 11/16 quarts but the
ready mixed colors are 3 27/32. Yes, they are shorting what was formerly
known as a "gallon" of paint. This was on the line in question. Some
others were still a full gallon.


Actually, after I posted before, I realized the numbers here are
grossly larger than the historical values so I do agree this is
"shorting" and is to be regretted that S-W has chosen to mask their cost
increases in such a manner...


Man, I'm full of wonders on this...

27/32 is on the quart not the full gallon! So 27/32*32 + 3*32 == 123
oz.

Ergo, if this is a change it is very small and would assume it was for a
deep tint.

I'm convinced the OP got the "full gallon" and there is no volume
reduction at all...
