Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep dupe: common questions

Is Dulux Heritage a good match for Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep?
Yes. Dulux Heritage Velvet Matt Paint - Tinted Colour Match matches Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep (NCS S 1505-R20B) at 96%, mixed to the same colour reference, so it reads the same on your wall.
How much cheaper is the Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep dupe?
The trade match starts at £23.91, up to 40% less than buying Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep direct.
Is the trade dupe the same quality as Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep?
It is trade paint, mixed to the same colour reference. Trade paint carries more pigment than retail, so it covers in fewer coats and stands up to cleaning. You pay less because there is no designer name on the tin.
How close is NCS S 1505-R20B to Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep?
Exact NCS match: closer than the eye can tell apart. We measure the colour against the NCS shade it is mixed to, and this one sits 0.68 dE apart (under 1 is invisible, 1 to 2 shows only side by side, over 3.5 is a different shade). The store tints every tin to that NCS code, so this is how close the paint itself will be before brand and finish come into it.
What does a 96% match actually mean?
The percentage is our overall grade for the trade product against Little Greene Dorchester pink - deep. It combines three things: how close the NCS shade it is mixed to sits to the original, the tinting quality of the trade brand, and how the finish carries colour. Platinum is 98% and above, Gold 96%, Silver 94%, Bronze below that. It grades the product, not the colour on its own. The colour on its own is the NCS fit on this page: a measured distance to the shade in the tin, where under 1 dE is invisible, 1 to 2 shows only side by side, and above 3.5 is a shift you will notice. Whatever the score, put a tester on the wall before you order tins.
How quickly can I get it?
Next Day Paint tints your colour to order. Order before 3pm, Monday to Friday, and it ships for next working day delivery at £3.99. They email you tracking when it leaves.
Can I try the colour before buying a full tin?
Most trade finishes come in a tester pot, and the page shows the tester price beside the tin price. Put it on the wall and look at it in daylight and under your own lamps before you order litres, because a tinted tin cannot go back.
Can I return it if I change my mind?
Next Day Paint tints each tin to your colour after you order, so they cannot resell it and cannot take it back unless it arrives faulty. Put a sample pot on the wall before you commit to full tins.

Same colour, up to 40% less.
