• Whitewash, or calcimine, kalsomine, calcimine, or lime paint is a low-cost type of paint made
from slaked lime (calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2) and chalk (calcium carbonate, (CaCO3), sometimes
known as "whiting".
• Distemper is a paint used in decorating and an historical
medium for painting pictures, and contrasted with tempera.
• Soft distemper is not abrasion resistant and may include
binders such as chalk, ground pigments, and animal glue.
• Hard distemper is stronger and wear-resistant and can
include casein or linseed oil as binders
• Distempering is the widely used method of
painting the interior as well as exterior surfaces of
the house.
• It is just a process of applying wash like white
wash or colour wash on the surface.
• But the finished surface obtained by distempering
is far superior to those obtained by white or
colour wash. Distempering is done by distempers.
