I believe it's actual gloss paint, it was intended for our front porch but got lost in the mix. We bought 3 gallons of water based for trim and the garage and 1 gallon of oil base for the porch, all white. To emphasize how much we bought, the total bill at Lowe's was around $450 for all of the paint including a 5 gallon bucket of of what most of the house is painted inside with. Porch and interior trim were all painted 1st and that was one of the last buckets. It's between 4-5 years old, as that's when we bought the house and my nightmare of having to paint everything. Those pics are around a year old to be exact because that black toolbox in the middle is in a corner now and I have a 56'' Harbor Freight in the middle. It has a tint of yellow to it I guess, but I'm not sure it's the paint. Once I discovered what it was, I used the stuff anyway even though I had mixed some solution into it that would have thin down water based for my sprayer. The sidewall a are probably pure white paint as I didn't mix the whole bucket with the solution. Times were hard at that point and I wasn't throwing away a $30-40 bucket of paint. Those walls were bare when we bought the house. No primer, just holes where the guy half assed trying to hang stuff and couldn't hit a stud for nothing. It could also be the fact it was cold when I painted it, probably in the 40's. I know better now, than then. Even with me half screwing it up it's an improvement. I'm a car guy in all honesty and home improvement is something I'm learning, especially the artistic part. I'm no artist. If there's time today, I'll get you a crappy pic with my phone with the cars out and door shut. It might give you a better idea of how bright it is. I run two 150 equivalent curly bulbs out there. They only actually pull 40w each, and that slides under the limit on my crappy ceiling fan.
