I am with Dave, Rustoleum has been my standby for years. Very limited color choices though.

But as you have seen the days of oil based paints are numbered. It's getting harder to find here. I recently used a Valspar latex over my new 11.7 oz skin and so far I am impressed with it. Much better than that latex I tried a 2-3 years ago. Just hold out for gloss finish!
