                        That is odd and I suspect maybe the Future had sat on the shelve a long time before you bought it or somehow it reacted with the white paint.

                        It's hard to tell sometimes what causes these things.

                        Mike the white had about 2 weeks to dry and it was a new bottle of future. It yellowed like the next day after it was sprayed. I was shocked that it yellowed at all and that it did it that fast.

                        Something is wrong if Future is yellowing.

                        Was it old? Was the white fully cured underneath?

                        I want to do a wash on my F-16s landing gear and bays and was wondering. What is the best clear coat to use that won't yellow? I sprayed MM gloss insignia white. I've tried future in the past but it yellowed same with testors glosses.
