Kalsomin / Calcimine is NOT another name for whitewash. Calcimine is (more or less) a glue base with an opaque pigment added. It's virtue was cheapness, an attractive appearance and the fact that it can be removed with hot watter and scrubbing. It's main detraction is that unless removed it will cause other coats of paint applied over it to peel and fail.Saxophobia (talk) 14:57, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
