AI summary

Choosing the right Resene white paint starts with understanding undertones—warm whites have yellow/red bases, while cool whites have blue/grey bases.

Always test colours in your space using Resene testpots or A4 drawdowns, observing them in different light. For a cohesive look, you can use different strengths of the same white.

Finally, consider the paint finish. Resene SpaceCote flat finishes hide imperfections, while gloss options like Resene Enamacryl are durable and easier to clean.
