Product Information
Full details
The Dulux Dusted Fondant Matt Emulsion Colour Tester is designed for homeowners and interior designers looking to visualize a specific beige shade before committing to a full-sized paint purchase. Its primary benefit is the ability to test the 'Dusted Fondant' tone directly on your interior walls or ceilings to assess how it interacts with your room's natural light; however, because it is a 30ml tester pot, it is intended strictly for sampling and not for covering large surface areas.

FAQs
Can I use this paint for a small craft project?
While it is formulated for walls and ceilings, it can be used for small craft projects, though it may not be as durable on non-porous surfaces as specialized craft paints.
Does this tester come with a brush?
No, the tester pot contains paint only. You will need your own small paintbrush or foam applicator.
How many coats should I apply for testing?
For the most accurate representation of the colour, we recommend applying two coats.
Is this paint suitable for bathrooms?
This is a standard matt emulsion for general interior use. It is not specifically moisture-resistant, so it may not be ideal for high-humidity areas like bathrooms.
How long does it take to dry?
Typically, the paint is touch-dry within a few hours, but drying times can vary depending on room temperature and humidity.
Troubleshooting
Paint is too thick or difficult to spread
Ensure your brush is slightly damp before applying, or stir the pot gently to loosen the consistency.
Colour looks different than expected
Colours change based on light. View the patch at different times of the day (morning, noon, and evening) before making your final decision.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your surface, ensure the area is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Apply the paint directly to your chosen wall or ceiling section. Because this is a water-based product, you can clean your brushes or applicators easily using warm soapy water immediately after use. Always store the tester in a cool, dry place if you have leftover paint, ensuring the cap is sealed tightly to prevent the product from drying out.
