Using Raw Linseed oil

If you use Raw Linseed Oil outside we also recommend preparing the surface with a wood preservative beforehand to avoid mildew occurring at a later date. Mildew and algae can be further prevented by applying Raw Linseed Oil to all of the surfaces including all the undersides.

Our Linseed Oils are also great for terracotta tiles, concrete and stone items, such as, steps and garden furniture.

Cleaning

Excess Linseed Oil can be removed with white spirit.

Linseed Oil is easily applied with a soft cloth such as t-shirt material. Work it into the wood in a circular motion, finishing off in the direction of the wood grain.

Coverage

Approx 18 Square metres per litre depending on the temperature, amount applied and the type of wood being worked on.

Drying Time

A medium coat will dry within 2-4 days.

Please note: Rags soaked in linseed oil are liable to self ignite. Soak them in water before disposing of them.
