In recent years, limewash paint has been making a comeback in interior design projects in Canada.
Its matte, velvety and textured finish appeals to lovers of natural design, Mediterranean style and ecological materials.
But where can you find quality lime paint in Canada? And above all, how do you apply it properly to achieve that soft, mineral effect that adds depth to walls?
Limewash paint or lime paint, what's the difference?
These two terms are often confused, but they actually refer to two very distinct finishes that serve different purposes.
- Limewash paint creates a textured, nuanced, and vibrant effect. Each brushstroke remains visible, offering a handcrafted finish that organically captures the light. It's a perfect choice for those looking for vibrant, weathered interior finishes with character.
- Limewash-free paint is a uniform finish that provides a smooth, matte, and more classic look while retaining the eco-friendly properties of lime. Unlike traditional acrylic or latex paints, its mineral composition allows the wall to breathe, while providing a simple and elegant aesthetic.
Why choose lime wash paint?
Limewash paint is a natural mineral paint, composed of lime, water, and pigments. Unlike synthetic paints, it breathes, it lives. It gives a textured, nuanced, and slightly powdery appearance to walls. It's a living finish, capturing light differently depending on the time of day.
Its advantages:
- No VOCs: it purifies indoor air
- Deep matte finish: perfect for creating a warm atmosphere
- Ecological and sustainable
- Compatible with high-end or more organic decoration

How to apply limewash paint?

- 2Apply with a wide brush. The brush allows you to achieve the nuanced effects that make lime so charming. Apply in crisscrossing motions, applying at least two coats.
