Default Testors Dull-Coat

Does Testors Dull-coat spray yellow on white. I would like a dull-coat to my Vikings, and I don't want the white to yellow. I hope it doesn't. If it does, could you guys please respond what dull-coats don't yellow, or to do something to the figure that will make it not yellow. Also I use Apple barrel, Delta Ceramcoat, and Folk art on Reginald Rutledge figures. I am also looking forward to using testors enamels on Reginald Rutledge's figures. Thanks a ton for any responses!
Michael

I don't know about the spray, but the brush on is one I'd stay away from. I used it on a Rams team and it made the yellow in the numbers run off the figure. I also would stay away from the gloss. I was putting it onto the Dolphins team that I just painted and it picked up some of the green on the figures base and spread it onto the jersey. I had to re-paint 8 figures because of it. I like Testors paint, but not their clear or dull coats. I would go with Delta Ceramcoat matte finish instead for the dull look, and their high gloss for a shiny look.

for flat finishes, i use testors model masters flat clear lacquer finish. it is a brush on finish, and it does nit yellow, from what i have seen. i seal the figures first with a brush on water based varnish.

Yes, it does yellow over time. My Notre Dame team looks like I painted them yellow instead of white.
