Areas of application for white wall paints indoors
Walls can also be given an interesting design with white paint. All colours in the room stand out impressively against a white background. White wall paints can be used in any room. White walls often make a beautiful addition to a wall that is highlighted in colour or decorated with expressive wallpaper.
Even small, darker rooms can benefit from a very light-coloured wall design. White paint is usually used on ceilings in particular, as a light-coloured ceiling visually raises the height of the room.
Wall paint in white: it's the opacity that counts
Especially with extremely light colour shades, it is important that the paint used has a high opacity. For example, there are often old coats of paint in intense, dark colour shades on plaster or woodchip or old wallpaper on the wall that are now to be painted over with a light colour. The white paint must therefore also be able to cover dark undercoats. It's a good thing that the MissPompadour wall paint The Valuable Wall Paint has opacity class 1. This means that after 2 coats, there is usually no trace of the previous colour.
Our wall paints in shades of white
One thing is certain: not all white is the same. In the Just paint Collection and also among the Little Pomp and CosyColours chalk paints, you will find a whole spectrum of interesting wall paints in shades of white.
All shades of white in the Just paint Collection are available in 2 water-based wall paint qualities. One is the high-quality, extra matt quality The Valuable Wall Paint. The Valuable Wall Paint is particularly impressive in white tones with its velvety, refined surface. It is particularly suitable for living rooms and bedrooms and anywhere where a particularly aesthetic effect is important. The Valuable Wall Paint is also a completely preservative-free, VOC-free and breathable paint. It is harmless to health and ensures a pleasant indoor climate.
A resistant, washable and scrub-resistant paint is particularly useful for very light colour shades. This is why the second wall paint quality from MissPompadour is also called The Functional Wall Paint. It fulfils all these requirements and scores highly with its enormous wet abrasion resistance. The Functional Wall Paint is used wherever white wall paints are exposed to particular stresses. It is suitable for corridors and stairwells, kitchens and bathrooms and anywhere in commercial areas with a lot of public traffic.
Little Pomp chalk-paint also comes in 3 soft shades of white, which are not only suitable for children's rooms: White & Bright, White & True and White & Friendly. LittlePomp chalk paints are particularly suitable for children's rooms. Its water-soluble colours are VOC-free and so harmless to health that they can also be used by pregnant women without any problems. The 15 soft colour shades in the collection, including the white tones, have been created with children's psychology in mind.
Among the elegant CosyColours chalk paints, you will also find several chalk-based wall paints in white, from the radiantly bright Simply White to the warm Fresh White.
Combining white colour
Hardly anyone wants to design their walls in a completely clear, untinted white colour. This is because clear white can easily create a very harsh impression and contrast too strongly with other colour shades. Slightly tinted white wall paints are more cosy and aesthetic. They remain white, but allow the eye to gently recover from too much brightness. Depending on which colour shade on another wall, wallpaper or home textiles such as upholstered furniture or curtains a white shade is to be combined with, it is important to pay attention to which pigments it is tinted with.
There are shades of white that contain a little yellow pigment. These include White with Sun and the tangy White with Ginger. But there are also white shades with warm, beige pigments such as White with Marble or White with Vanilla. But even a hint of the lightest grey as in White with Character, a delicate red as in White with Powder or a hint of green as in White with Linden Green create very different moods. This is because our eyes unconsciously create a connection between the pigments in the white interior wall paint and the other colours in the room. This creates a harmonious overall impression.

Do white tones on the wall appear cool or warm?
The effect of a white tone depends on the pigments that are added to the colour. If there are traces of blue pigment, as in Blue with Snow, then white has a rather cool effect; if you add yellow pigments, as in White with Sun, for example, you get a warm effect.
Which shades of white are suitable for wall paint?
All shades of white from MissPompadour are suitable as wall paint. It is best to avoid pure white. Firstly, it can create a very harsh effect, and secondly, the colour shades Simply White and White with White do not cover as well as other colour shades as they do not contain any pigments. An additional coat of paint may then be necessary.
How does a room painted completely white look?
Bright and perhaps also a little boring. With very bright white, the pupil of the human eye automatically contracts. Therefore, bright white can create a somewhat grey effect.
Which furniture goes well with white walls?
White wall paint can be combined with almost all other colour shades. If you want to achieve a white ambience in a shabby chic style, it is advisable to use different shades of white for furniture and walls to avoid an undesirable "clinical effect".
Why are there different shades of white wall paint?
The pigments added to a pure white tone can create harmonious connections to other colours in the room and help to avoid harsh contrasts.
Can I be sure that I can also paint over dark walls with a white colour?
The Valuable Wall Paint, the CosyColours chalk paints and the LittlePomp chalk paints have opacity class 1, which means that tinted whites such as White with Melting are ideal for painting over dark walls with 2 coats of paint. An additional coat of paint is often required for light shades of white such as White with White.
If I want to use white wall paint, do I always have to prime it first?
No, normally 2 coats are enough to cover well. Exceptions are substrates with heavy stains or porous plaster. Even on highly absorbent plasterboard walls, it is best to apply a primer coat of MissPompadour To Prime Walls before painting with White wall paints
Isn't white wall paint very sensitive to soiling?
The wall paint quality The Functional Wall Paint has particular advantages here. Walls painted with it can be washed off without any problems. Even stubborn stains can be easily removed.
