Match of Dulux™ New Dawn *

For a match of Dulux New Dawn 52989 in spray paint, dry-to-touch can happen within minutes, but that is not the same as being ready for recoating or full handling. Plan on recoating in about 1 to 2 hours.

Full cure is much longer, about two weeks. If the part must be handled, assembled, or put into service, wait until the coating has had enough time to harden fully.

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and its chemistry, not to the Dulux New Dawn 52989 color name alone.

Confirm Dulux New Dawn 52989 from a physical swatch, printed reference, or another known original brand color reference before you order. Screen images can shift with lighting and display settings, so they are not the best approval source.

MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color standard, so the safest way to place the order is to verify the target color reference first, especially if the item will sit beside an existing painted surface.

Yes. A match of Dulux New Dawn 52989 in MyPerfectColor spray paint is a practical choice for switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, knobs, brackets, trim pieces, and other small parts where a smooth sprayed finish is useful.

Use the right prep for the material, whether the part is metal, plastic, wood, or already coated. For removable hardware and fixtures, spraying the part separately usually gives better control than trying to coat it in place.

Choose the finish based on how you want the part to perform and how much reflectivity you can accept. Higher gloss finishes are more reflective and can make surface flaws easier to notice, while lower gloss finishes reduce reflection but can clean differently.

Because sheen changes the final look of a match of Dulux New Dawn 52989, pick the finish that fits the item and the environment where it will be used. If the part needs to coordinate with existing painted work, the finish choice is part of getting the order right.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Dulux New Dawn in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

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. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. 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.

MyPerfectColor offers custom spray paint matched to Dulux New Dawn which enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish. It is difficult to gauge spray paint coverage because it depends on how you apply it and the amount of overspray, but generally the 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. This paint sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Dulux New Dawn, 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.
