Premium Boiled Linseed Oil - 4L - Natural Wood Finish & Protective Coating
Our Premium Boiled Linseed Oil is a specially processed linseed oil with added drying agents, designed for a faster drying time compared to raw linseed oil. It’s an excellent choice for protecting and enhancing the natural beauty of wood.
Common Uses:
- Acts as a sealer and protector for indoor furniture, cabinets, and wooden surfaces.
- Ideal for treating wooden tool handles and sports equipment.
- Can be used as a thinner for artists’ oil paints.
Key Features:
- Fast Drying: Contains drying agents for quicker drying than raw linseed oil.
- Durable Finish: Provides a protective coating that resists water, heat, scratches, and most stains.
- Versatile Application: Enhances oil-based paints and improves brushability.
- Lighter Finish: Dries to a lighter color compared to raw linseed oil, giving wood a clean, natural look.
Application for Timber Protection:
- Ensure the wood surface is clean and dry.
- Mix boiled linseed oil with Diggers Mineral Turpentine in a 50:50 ratio for added protection.
- Apply two thin coats using a brush, roller, or spray gun, rubbing the oil well into the wood. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next.
- Wipe off any excess oil with a clean, lint-free cloth to avoid a sticky finish.
How It Works: When applied to porous wood, boiled linseed oil fills the pores and forms a protective barrier as it cures. This film helps protect against water, heat, scratches, and stains, while enhancing the wood’s natural grain.
Safety Note: Boiled linseed oil-soaked rags are highly flammable and can ignite spontaneously. Immerse used rags in water and dispose of them safely by incineration or in an approved landfill.
