Michael Harding : Refined Linseed Oil
Size 250ml
When mixed with oil paint, Michael Hardings linseed oil increases the gloss and transparency of the paint, thins the paint for easier flow, and reduces visible brush marks. It also slows the drying time of the paint. However, using too much can cause yellowing due to the natural color of the oil and can lead to defects like wrinkling if layers are applied too thickly.
Alkali Refined Pale Linseed Oil, a pale oil extracted from flax seeds, is used in many of Michael Hardings paints. This oil ensures a strong paint film during drying, contributing to the longevity of each painting. It is also suitable for use with dry ground pigments.
