Dulux Trade Paint unveils Decorator Colour Guide

Dulux Trade is giving even more support to professional decorators with the launch of its new colour guide and DVD. An industry first, this latest information contains practical advice, top tips and ideas, to help the trade become more colour confident.

Within the new Decorator Colour Guide, professional decorators will find details of the company's clever colour tools, including its easy-to-use fan decks and colour cards. There is also information on the colour mood system unique to Dulux, which makes it easy to pull together coordinated schemes for clients.

Colour can be a daunting area for homeowners and, more often than not, they look to their decorator for support and advice. It's important that decorators can talk confidently and knowledgeably about using colour, and help customers leave uninspiring magnolia behind.

With this in mind, we've developed our new guide to be informative, straightforward and give decorators colour know-how they can use on a daily basis. Ultimately, it provides decorators with all the key information they need to advise customers, without overloading them with details that they don't.

As well as outlining the basics of colour scheming, the booklet and DVD include the range of extra services available to professional decorators, such as the in-store Dulux Trade Colour Scanner. This unique scanner can be used to measure objects such as fabric or wallpaper, helping customers find the closest Dulux Trade colour, as well as a whole palette of complementary shades.
