You select whether you’re working on an interior or exterior project. Then you add in details of the surfaces and substrates involved. Lastly, you add in what kind of finish you want to achieve. The tool searches the complete range of Dulux Trade products, giving you product recommendations that match the needs of your project.

The tool automatically adds relevant application details and M60 clauses to the specification. You can then save the document for use during the tendering process.
