DIY is like kryptonite to me but I've been given the task of Updating The Bathroom inc. the bath panels and some other woodwork

They're decent bits of actual real wood with a nice texture and grain but I'm told They Need To Be White

What's the best way to achieve this without losing the texture and making them look like plastic/MDF. I could possibly get away with antique white providing it doesn't look like undercoat

Ta lads

If you've got a pressure washer you could give them a bit of a going over to emphasise the grain then use a light lime wash for that "country living/dying" distressed look.

Test it all on the back face first obviously
