WPF using Material Design Toolkit.
I am trying to find out if it is possible to have different color palettes / themes for windows / user controls, so that each window / u-control has its own color theme.

From one of the developers in the material design xaml gitter chat:
as for changing the colors on different views. Yes. You can actually take the same color resource dictionaries that you add in the App.xaml (you only need the color ones; not all of them) and apply them at whatever level in the XAML makes sense. For example if you wanted to change the primary color to Blue for all controls inside of a Grid you could do something like this:
<Grid>
<Grid.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/MaterialDesignColors;component/Themes/Recommended/Primary/MaterialDesignColor.Blue.xaml"/>
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Grid.Resources>
</Grid>
