Appliance White Spray Paint is Yellowing
I’m having repeated problems with appliance white spray paint turning yellow over time. Can anyone recommend a specific brand or type of white spray paint that will stay white?

The recipe for linoleum hasn't changed much in nearly 170 years, yet it's still one of the greenest floors money can buy.

You can get the same paint used on cars, only put in a spray can. You can't store it very long after it's mixed, but the paint is durable and colorfast and you can get just the shade you need. I seem to recall i paid about $15 for a can of the stuff to do my bumper. I took in a my gas tank cover for the paint shop to match to and the mixing guy was pickier about getting the exact shade than i was.

Automotive spray paint sounds like a great solution - I hadn't even thought of that. I found a good source online that will mix up pretty much any color and put it in a spray can for $25. see http://www.paintscratch.com
You can buy "appliance white" spray cans in the truck paint section of any autoparts store for about 5 clams.
