It´s better to create a method to convert for NSString to UIColor. You shoud have a NSString with for example whiteColor or blueColor and you can convert it in the following way:

  -(UIColor *)getColor:(NSString*)col

  {

  SEL selColor = NSSelectorFromString(col);
  UIColor *color = nil;
  if ( [UIColor respondsToSelector:selColor] == YES) {

    color = [UIColor performSelector:selColor];
   }  
    return color;
  }
