White gloss paint that stays white

I've given up on white gloss entirely now after the last time I glossed with Dulux white it was yellow within 6 months
I use Laura Ashley cotton white eggshell now. It's matt, but it's gloriously white and is very forgiving on touchups which means I can quickly daub scuff marks without having to paint the entire doorframe when the OH scrapes the paintwork yet again!0 -
Don't go near oil-based white if you want it to stay white, they will ALL yellow(dulux satin one has done it within 2 months)
Wouldn't know about gloss, but after tons of research and a few errors can highly recommend Sikkens Rubbol BL Satura for satin finish, totally awesome.0 -
I've been using this Johnstone's Trade Aqua white gloss. It went on well and has a good high gloss finish. I can't comment on durability but it gets excellent reviews.0

We used white Dulux paint and in no time turned yellow. Someone suggested to us to buy a water based paint, because it stays white as there's no oil in it.
We tried it, and it has yellowed just the same. Infact, it seems to be worse than the Dulux. So annoying.
