Does anyone have any long-term experience with TS-26 Pure White?

I've used Testors white enamel a few times over the years and it always yellows after time.  Does the Tamiya paint do this?

Thinking about using it on my next build.  I could use white nail polish also, but I love the simplicity of the rattle cans!

I've been using TS26 for many years and never noticed any yellowing.  Some kits were painted over seven years ago. It dries with a beautiful shine so that a clearcoat isn't necessary, reducing the risk of yellowing.  Hope this helps

Thanks for the input.   I'll give it a try.  

I've had great results with the other colors, just a little leery when it comes to white.

I have used TS26 a couple of times and it is the best bright white paint I have used.  I have tried Duplicolor but the paint has a yellowish tint to it.  I have had the same problem with Testors white enamel.  I think the clear coat causes it to yellow over time.
