The Look

Achieve authentic mineral lime paint finishes with subtle visual movement and soft texture effects which naturally occur during the brushed application.
This premium non-sheen architectural paint can be applied to drywall and masonry surfaces and creates an exceptional, matte finish. The 2024 collection consists of 36 exclusive colors.

Surfaces & Coverage

  • Surfaces: Interior wall and ceiling surfaces with proper preparation and Lime-Prep Primer. Exterior and interior masonry and cement surfaces.

  • Coverage: 300 square feet average coverage per gallon with two coats applied (75 square feet of coverage average per-quart container). Our lime paint is a thin viscosity and spreads easily and quickly with a Limewash Paintbrush.

Healthier & Easy to Use

  • Fresh and healthy: This limewash paint is a US made, zero VOC, natural mineral finish with no synthetic or added binders. A healthier alternative to common paints. Virtually no odor.

  • Easy to use: Pre-blended James Alexander Limewash paint is a pleasure to paint with and very forgiving. Easy-to-follow instructions are included. Easy cleanup with soap and water.

Lime-Prep primer should be applied before applying James Alexander Limewash to drywall, previously painted walls, and other interior surfaces that are not naturally porous for proper adhesion (this step is not generally required before application to porous brick, stone, or plaster). Our zero VOC primer is low odor and allows limewash paint application to non-mineral surfaces.

This limewash bonding primer is not a sealing primer. Use an acrylic latex primer prior to application of this product to prepare new construction drywall or other surfaces which would normally require a primer prior to painting. Simply apply this bonding primer over your sealing primer.

White Base Primer is the best option for most applications.

Clear Base Primer allows the natural color of your substrate material to show through.

We recommend one coat of Lime-Prep primer and two coats of limewash paint for most applications.
