Im trying to create a "block basic" profile for an extension portfolio and the one thing I keep getting unstuck on is the toposurface or more specifically, I cannot create a purely white surface when I render. Ive tried editting the material in the properties section of the toposurface to a generic / default white material with a white image overlay and yet it keeps coming out a green-grey.

Any tips please?

You will not get pure whites in Revit.  You will have to go into photoshop or something else.

Thanks for the help. Do you know what the lightest shades I can get are and how to get them please? It's just coming out too dark for basic shadowing (especially early morning winter solstice - I know it's going to be dark that time of year anyway, but a white surface would better detail the length of shadows etc.) and I'd rather keep what's meant to be a simple drawing just that instead of having to manually alter a rendering...
