Deciphering the signs

When I arrived at the New Delhi Youth Hostel I had to wait a little while at the counter which gave me time to read some of the signs on the walls. I like this one (the spelling and grammar are theirs):

Use of un-parliamentary languages with any of the staffs is strictly restricted

Climbing the stairs I was able to enjoy prints of paintings by local artists. But this sign had me boggled:

BEWARE OF NEW
WHITE PAINTING


I looked everywhere but could not find this dangerous white picture. Later I noticed they had the painters in and realised that this was the Indian version of 'WET PAINT'.
