Overview
Dulux Heritage paint sample pots are the ideal way to explore rich, carefully curated colours before committing to a full tin. Designed to give a true impression of the finished look, they allow you to test shades in your own space and experience how they respond to changing light throughout the day.
Colour can appear different depending on lighting, room orientation and surrounding décor. Using sample pots helps you make a more confident decision by comparing shades directly in your environment. For best results, apply the paint to a movable surface rather than directly onto the wall, so it can be viewed in different areas. You can also watch the video on this page for a step-by-step guide to achieving the most accurate results.
Comparing a selection of shades side by side makes it easier to refine your choice, particularly when selecting between similar tones. Once you have found the right colour, you can move forward with confidence knowing it will suit your space.
