How it works

1

Upload your photo

Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works best when the color you want to change is distinct and clearly visible. Complex mixed patterns may need markers for precision.

⏱ Solid colors: 15-20 seconds. Complex gradients or textured surfaces: may need 2-3 refinements for perfect coverage.
2

Describe the color change

Type your instruction: 'change the wall color from beige to sage green' or 'make the car dark metallic gray.' Specify both the original color and the new color for clarity. No marking needed for obvious single-colored objects.

💡 Use descriptive color names: 'burgundy', 'forest green', 'metallic silver' produce better results than just 'red', 'green', 'gray.'

Copy one of these to get started:

Change car paint color change the car color from red to deep metallic blue, preserve the shine and reflections
Wall color for real estate change the wall color from beige to light sage green, keep the same finish and lighting
Product color variant change the product color from white to matte black, maintain all surface texture and details
Hair color preview change the hair color from blonde to auburn brown, natural looking with realistic highlights
3 more prompts
Furniture color swap change the sofa color from gray to warm terracotta, preserve the fabric texture and shadows
Accent color pop change just the door color from white to bold red, keep everything else the same
Brand color consistency change the logo and packaging color from the current color to exact brand blue matching hex #1e3a8a

Review the color change

Check that textures, shadows, and highlights were preserved. Verify the new color looks natural under the existing lighting. Look for any missed spots or color bleeding into adjacent areas.

4

Refine missed areas if needed

If some spots were missed or the wrong areas changed, tap markers on those spots and regenerate. This tells the AI exactly where to apply or not apply the color change. Most simple color swaps work perfectly on the first try.

💡 For objects with multiple similar colors (like a two-tone car), use markers to specify exactly which parts should change.

If something looks off

Color change affected wrong areas

Why: Similar colors in different objects were all changed together. The AI grouped them as one.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific object you want changed and regenerate: only change this [object] to [color]

💡 Markers isolate exactly what you mean, preventing spillover to similar colors elsewhere.

Texture or detail lost after color change

Why: The AI prioritized color accuracy over texture preservation, sometimes smoothing out details.

Try: change the color to [new color], preserve all original texture, grain, and surface detail

💡 Explicitly mention 'preserve texture' or 'maintain details' for textured surfaces.

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific color area you want changed, then regenerate with the same prompt

💡 Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS area specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

New color looks flat or unrealistic

Why: The AI applied a uniform color without the original lighting variation and shadows.

Try: change the color to [new color] while maintaining natural shadows, highlights, and lighting variation

💡 Adding 'maintain shadows and highlights' helps preserve the 3D look of the original.

Some spots or edges were missed

Why: Complex edges or small areas can be missed, especially where colors are similar.

Try: Tap markers on the missed spots and regenerate: extend the [color] color change to these areas too

💡 Missed spots are easy to fix—just point them out with markers.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the colored area before describing the change?

For single obvious colored objects, no! Just describe the change: 'change the car from red to blue.' The AI identifies the object by your description. Use markers when there are multiple objects of the same color and you only want one changed, or when the AI gets confused about which area you mean.

Will the texture and material look be preserved?

Yes! The AI specifically preserves surface texture, reflections, shadows, and material properties. A glossy metallic car will still look glossy and metallic in the new color. Fabric will keep its weave texture. For best results, add 'preserve texture' or 'maintain material finish' to your prompt.

Can I match a specific color or brand color?

Yes! You can describe colors by name, reference other objects, or even mention hex codes. 'Match the blue from the Tiffany logo' or 'change to hex #1e3a8a' both work. The AI interprets color descriptions and produces close matches.

Does it work on patterned or multicolored objects?

Yes, but be specific about what to change. For a striped shirt, specify 'change only the blue stripes to red, keep white stripes white.' For gradient objects, describe the transition you want. Complex patterns may need markers to guide exactly which parts should change.

Can I change multiple colors in one prompt?

Yes! Describe all changes together: 'change the walls from beige to gray and the door from white to black.' The AI processes multiple color changes simultaneously. For complex multi-color changes, you might get better results doing them one at a time.
