White wash is super duper easy....
First paint with any color of Dixie Belle Chalk Mineral Paint. Then using a damp brush, add a thin coat of Dixie Belle Whitewash Glaze. I am attaching a pix for you to see what it looks like on gray paint.
We also have a white wax that you can use for a very similar look.
I would recommend you join our public Facebook group, there are many talented people in the group, they can give you great tips and ideas!
