I'm considering to upgrade from my exiting box to a larger box and considering to order this new larger box in white.

What are the long term experiences with this Snap-On color?

Particularly, is this color stable, meaning will it hold it's color, or will it start to yellow at some point due to exhaust fumes or similar environmental factors.

Many thanks in advance.

I think the white will look good,I always thought about going to a white but retired early.Good coat of wax now and then should protect it.Have seen Snap-On boxes in the yellow and lime green in harsh shop enviroments and they have never discolored.

Horrible color if you work in a dirtier environment shop

Our young guy has a white cart in a truck repair shop and it doesn’t go well for that color! Yellow, and light gray from other guys horrible also. Reds, blues and black hold up the best in our shop

Thanks guys, let me bump this thread just one more time, in hopes that someone would chime in with some long term experiences with this color.

By the way, of course I am aware of the implications of dirt and grime showing on it.

I no longer work in a shop and currently work only as a hobby, so that is how I can afford being clean and slow. Most of my tools and toolbox look like brand new and I love it.

I have had a white Snap-on tool cart since it's inception and it has worn well. It does not yellow and contrary to other commentary, it does not show dirt like some would say.

Many thanks! That is the answer I was hoping to get!
