Main summary
Key takeaways
Product reviewed
Daniel Paints interior paint (bought on Amazon), focused on ceiling painting with matte and satin/velvet finishes.
Key features mentioned
Paint quality & surface hiding (ceilings)
- Matte finish
- Described as very opaque
- Does not streak
- Good overall consistency
- Satin / “specular” sheen
- Has a satin-like shine
- Appears slightly off-white (not pure white)
Coverage & consistency
- The user found the consistency “perfect” overall.
- For a ceiling with problematic areas (described as pommle/pellicule ridges/holes), imperfections were still visible.
- The reviewer attributes this partly to ceiling prep, especially plasterboard joint issues, not paint alone.
Application & drying
- No visible smell (nearly odorless).
- Not super fast drying, but workable for typical small ceiling sections.
- Suggested approach: move/position lighting before painting to avoid missing marks that only become visible later.
Use case guidance
- Works best for small ceilings (their test was small).
- The reviewer notes they may offer a different formulation for larger ceilings, referencing a possible product difference (e.g., glyceo vs matte/acrylic).
- They also mention guidance for typical apartment ceiling sizes.
Pros (as stated)
- Excellent value for money
- Satin: about €9.90 including VAT
- Matte: around €5.40 including VAT per liter
- Compared to what a tradesperson charges for similar work: “absolutely unbeatable.”
- Good finish behavior
- Matte: no streaks, good opacity
- Satin: keeps a nice satin look (but slightly off-white)
- Low odor
- No smell
- Packaging & delivery
- Fast delivery and well packaged, protecting against broken paint cans
- Customer service offered resolution
- The seller offered return/refund or exchange when the reviewer received the wrong finish (matte vs satin)
Cons (as stated)
- Not a miracle product for bad surfaces
- Ceiling defects (bad joints/ridges/holes) were still visible, especially around ridges and plasterboard joint imperfections.
- Suggests extra prep may be needed:
- Sand as well as possible
- Use a skim coat or a special filler/sleeve for irregular surfaces
- Timing / availability issue
- At the time referenced near the end, the products were not available online
- Seller response: they were closed for vacation, with reopening mentioned for roughly Aug 25–26
- Color/finish limitation
- Satin white is slightly off-white, not pure white
- May not meet expectations for “perfect white”
- Matte is described as pure white, while satin is not
Comparison(s) made
- Compared to a previous “worst” paint brand tried for another video
- The earlier paint was called the worst, even “worse than Action’s paint”
- Action’s paint was still considered “the lower bar,” but was better than the worst paint used before
- Compared pricing to professional/tradesperson pricing
- The reviewer suggests their prices are similar to what a pro might charge for the job portion of construction paint—implying strong competitiveness
User experience / handling notes
- Wrong item issue
- Delivery sent satin vs matte (finish mix-up)
- Seller offered refund/exchange, but the reviewer didn’t return due to time pressure
- Application observation
- Initially looked opaque, but drying revealed more about finish and shadows
- Preparation matters
- Visibility of marks traced mainly to plasterboard/joint problems, not paint alone
- Ceiling-specific caution
- Poor lighting or not repositioning lights during painting can hide streaks/marks until later
Unique points explicitly mentioned (distinct ideas)
- Reviewer initially thought Amazon sold only poor paint, but this one surprised them.
- Brand: Daniel Paints, founded in 1875 (described as a Marseille institution).
- Reviewer ordered two finish types (velvet + satin) plus a ceiling product, but received the wrong finish (matte instead of satin) due to an order error.
- Seller offered return/refund/exchange, but reviewer declined due to time.
- Delivery was fast and very well packaged (risk of broken cans acknowledged).
- Ceiling result affected by existing ceiling defects: streaks, ridges/shadows, and bad plasterboard joints.
- Matte showed good opacity and no streaking; satin showed sheen.
- Matte consistency felt perfect (slightly liquid impression at first).
- No smell.
- Drying isn’t super fast, but acceptable for small ceilings.
- Satin is slightly off-white; matte described as pure white.
- For irregular/defective surfaces: sand, then use skim coat or a special sleeve/patch system.
- Coverage/visibility depends on lighting; moving light before painting helps.
- Pricing: satin about €9.90 incl. VAT; matte about €5.40 incl. VAT per liter.
- Value compared to typical professional/tradesperson costs: “absolutely unbeatable.”
- Availability problem: products not available online at the time referenced.
- Seller said they were on vacation.
- Reopening referenced around Aug 25–26.
- An affiliate link was mentioned at the end (not a product feature, but part of purchase context).
Speakers / views
- Single main speaker/reviewer: covers the entire evaluation (delivery issue, application test, impressions of matte vs satin, odor/finish behavior, and pricing/value).
- No clearly separate second speaker with an additional technical viewpoint.
Overall verdict / recommendation
Recommended—especially the matte ceiling paint—for good hiding power, no streaks, low odor, and strong pricing.
However:
- Results depend heavily on surface prep (plasterboard joints/ridges can still show).
- Satin is not pure white and its sheen may highlight imperfections more.
- Availability may be temporarily limited due to the seller’s vacation closure.
