I used to mix paint by hand in a DC-area store that sold Martin Senour. Antique White was our most popular color.

They sell bulb grease at hardware stores, usually by the light bulbs - that would probably be the best stuff to use.

They're very economical, and I'm someone who is constantly losing bags so the idea of buying 10 at a time doesn't phase me, but they might not be for everyone.

I found that Lowe's low-VOC paint (Olympic Premium) was reasonable - about 15-20$ a gallon in DC, depending on finish. It looks like it's on sale right now, too. Good luck!
