Yellow Limewash Colors

Yellow limewash takes the earthy side of yellow: Tuscan ochres, pale limestone creams and golden wheat. Natural mineral pigments give it warm depth rather than synthetic brightness, and the lime's natural patina keeps it grounded, never garish, in kitchens, hallways and living spaces.

Zero VOC (under 5 g/L), with no synthetic binders, made in the USA.

Grano is a soft natural yellow, Ventiquattro a soft gold-yellow and Camello a warm camel. Pair yellows with creams like Calcare. For terracotta and copper tones, see our orange limewash colors.

Sample first. Limewash dries much lighter than it looks wet, so test a sample jar or hand-painted sample card in your own light before you buy. See all color samples.

Bare brick, stone, stucco and plaster take limewash directly. Drywall and painted walls need one coat of Lime-Prep Primer first; it can be painted over in about 2 hours at 70°F with moderate humidity. Brush on two coats, plus an optional third. Ideally leave 24 hours between coats, though you can recoat once the wall is dry. A gallon covers about 300 sq ft over two coats.

Mix Limewash Densifier into the final coat on walls people touch. It reduces chalking and the need for a sealer, but it doesn't make the wall wipeable. For a wipeable surface, add Matte Protective Sealer over densified limewash only: two coats, 2 hours apart, starting at least 24 hours after the final coat. Don't overbrush. It breathes rather than fully sealing, so the wall is wipeable, not washable, and highly pigmented materials can still stain it.
