Match of Dulux™ Walden's Pond *

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, the hiding power needed, the application method, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

For Dulux Walden's Pond 342789, plan by total surface area rather than by the color name alone. Small parts like vents, brackets, pipe, trim pieces, fixtures, or accessories usually need less material than a large panel, but rough or porous surfaces and multiple coats will increase usage.

The color reference stays the same, but the finish can change how Dulux Walden's Pond 342789 reads after it is applied. Matte finishes reflect less light, while gloss finishes reflect more light, so the same matched color can look different even when the color formula is intended to match the same reference.

If you are coating a part that sits next to an existing painted surface, try to match the sheen as well as the color reference. That helps reduce the risk that the new coating looks different from the surrounding area.

Start by cleaning the surface, removing grease or residue, and masking any areas you do not want to coat. Light scuffing is often helpful where appropriate, especially on slick or glossy surfaces, because it can improve adhesion.

Before painting a larger area, test the match of Dulux Walden's Pond 342789 on the actual surface you plan to coat. This is especially useful for PVC, metal, hardware, or previously coated parts, since the substrate can affect how the finished color and sheen read.

Custom color matches should be chosen carefully before ordering. Confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity first, because custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable.

That matters most when ordering Dulux Walden's Pond 342789 for a specific project such as spray painting fixtures, trim parts, or removable components. If the wrong format or sheen is selected, it can affect both appearance and fit for the job.

Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used and how much reflectivity, durability, and cleanup you want. Sheen affects both performance and appearance, so the same match of Dulux Walden's Pond 342789 can read differently depending on whether you choose a flatter or glossier finish.

For small parts, hardware, pipe, vents, or accessories, the practical goal is usually to pick the finish that fits the surface and the application method. MyPerfectColor can supply a match of Dulux Walden's Pond 342789 in spray paint and other formats for color-matching projects.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new.

If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Dulux Walden's Pond, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Related Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the company you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
