I have googled so many times what paint to use to paint my pine floors white. Some suggest painting timber floors with a marine paint, which is like a 2 pac epoxy, others suggest white washed floors. I have been told to keep away from enamel paint to paint my floors white, as enamel can yellow over time.
I have two dogs, both white/cream (when clean!), so a white floor would work well for my family, which consists of myself and the two dogs.
A lot of references are made to
I did find a great article on countrylife.co.uk which provides two options, in an article titled How to paint white floorboards
They recommend a brand called Farrow & Ball for white painted floors.
Their website describes their floor paint as follows:Available in all colours so an ideal way of treating timber or concrete floors. This tough, oil based paint, with a classic eggshell finish, is becoming increasingly popular. Stylish and practical, Farrow & Ball Floor Paint is suitable for use in virtually every area of the house, from hallways to kitchens, as well as bathrooms, utility rooms, playrooms and offices.
- Available in all colours.
- Preparation use an oil/aluminium based primer for wooden floors.
- 40% sheen level.
- Completely washable.
And there are so many colour options. I prefer the following: All White, Strong White, Wimborne White, Great White & James White. There is a blog i came across which has used Farrow & Ball paints. The Yvestown Blog. Below is the picture from the blog using Farrow & Ball floor paint in Elephant Breath.

Don't you just love Elle Decor. It is my 2nd favorite magazine, after Belle. Third would have to be Vogue Living. Perhaps when I have a few dollars behind me, I will venture into the world of magazines, or maybe I could be a location scout. Even better, I will own a selection of properties, about 10, which would be used for photos shoots, film sets etc. For the meantime, if I ever finish my house, I might be able to make a few thousand dollars here and there by having a few commercials or photo shoots conducted in the house. I better get renovating. It's 11:53pm at night, so I don't think I am going to start tonight!
