I am moving into my new home a week from now and it is an old farmhouse with lovely big sash windows and original doors in place. The problem is that a lot of the woodwork (doorframes, skirting etc.) are varnished wood and I want them all white to freshen up the place and take the dreary look off it. I cannot seem to find any clarity on the best paint to do this. I read that Little Green Company paints are great for quality, look etc. and have vouchers for John Lewis so want to buy some LGC paint to do this job. I read that LGC acrylic eggshell is brilliant for woodwork but even their website only mentions intelligent eggshell (which is apparently water based so it couldnt be this!) and traditional oil eggshell. So where is this acrylic eggshell? If it doesn't exist, oil eggshell is probably fine for the job but I can't figure out what colour I need. I just want it to look traditional and clean. Which white might that be does anyone know?
