Water based eggshell going yellow

[brittas2009]

Hi. I bought a tin of white acrylic eggshell. I used about half and have gone to use the other half about 6 months later, only to see that it's drying very yellow against the Woodwork I painted previously... Is this normal for this stuff to go off?.... I appreciate paint doesn't last for ever in the tin but I thought I might get more than 6 months

I stored it in the dry but away from heat/cold etc

Many thanks

Generally the water based stuff stays white unless subjected to the usual satins, nicotine etc !!

Obvious question, did you stir it well?
Maybe contact the manufacturer with a batch number, there may have been a problem with that particular batch.

What make of paint was it?
