AI summary

Choosing the right Resene white paint involves considering hue and finish. Start by deciding between warm (yellow/red-based) or cool (blue/grey-based) undertones to match your room's lighting and desired mood.

Use Resene testpots or A4 drawdowns to see how colours look in your space throughout the day. For a cohesive look, you can use different strengths of the same white. Finally, consider the paint finish, as low-sheen or matte options hide imperfections while gloss is durable and easy to clean.
