Base preparation in the past was often done with a simple chalk and animal glue mix known as whiting. This is the name we have adopted for this shade that reflects the slightly beige appearance of size. We still use chalk in our modern recipes however we are 100% vegan so we don’t use animal derived or tested products. It is a really useful off-white shade for lighter palette schemes and also compliments the deeper off‐whites really well.
My decorator has just finished the library in Buff with Spanish White and Whiting, as you suggested, and it is totally transformed

We have spent years perfecting our pioneering plant-based paints and we are proud of the product we have created using gentle chemistry and a lot of dedication to making a more sustainable paint! We believe we are pioneers in creating natural paints using plant-based ingredients instead of petrochemical derived products.
Unlike many other paint brands, what’s in our tins is on our tins! We declare all of our ingredients, read our full list of ingredients and learn more about how our paint is made.
We use our local courier service called APC which is based in Hereford. APC operates franchises throughout the country and we can deliver parcels throughout the UK on an overnight service.
We are not able to offer returns, as all of our paint is mixed to order and therefore is a bespoke product.
NB: We will accept returns of non bespoke products which include preparatory products.

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.
Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.
If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
