Choosing Your Color is just the First Step You’re busy, we get it. You don’t have time to wait for hours between coats. That’s why Dutch Boy® offers hundreds of beautiful one-coat colors. With premium Dutch Boy paint, trusted professional tools from Purdy® and a little bit of know-how, you can achieve one-coat coverage in just three easy steps.
Choose a One-Coat Color
Dutch Boy offers hundreds of tested colors with proven one-coat coverage. Use the Color Visualizer to experiment with color, then bring home color samples of a few favorites.

Apply With Confidence
While using premium products from Dutch Boy and Purdy brands is essential for achieving one-coat coverage, completing this final step is just as important. Mastering our application technique will not only save you valuable time — it will also leave your walls beautifully transformed.
Confidence is key. Paint is best applied when working in repeated 3-foot square sections, using an “N” shape to guide your loaded roller. Fill in the center of the N with horizontal strokes, then lightly smooth with vertical strokes, staying within the 3-foot square. Repeat. Click below for more information.
