What is "whitewash"?
Whitewash is a type of paint made from water, lime, and pigment. It is used to create a white or light-colored finish on walls, fences, and other surfaces. Whitewash is known for its transparent quality, which allows some of the surface texture to show through. It is often used to give a fresh, bright look to buildings or to protect surfaces like wood and brick.
