Gloss paint and age-discolouration
 

My preferred colour of gloss paint for interiour doors, frames and
skirting boards is pure white. The big disadvantage however, is that
pure white oil-based gloss always turns to cream after a few years. Is
there a one-coat white gloss that does not discolour with age?
Alternatively, is there a light-coloured gloss that still looks good
after it has age-discoloured (other than cream or magnolia)?

Thanks

Frank

Acrylic gloss doesn't discolour but the ones I've used are extremely soft
compared to solvent based paint. Good for exterior stuff where access is
difficult and/or there's not going to be a lot of mechanical wear and tear.
