DALER ROWNEY Standard Linseed Oil 75 ml
DALER ROWNEY Standard Linseed Oil is a classic oil medium for oil painting. It reduces the viscosity of oil paints, improves brushstroke flow, and extends drying time, giving artists more time to mix shades and apply transparent glazes. On its own, it gives the finished painting a gloss surface.

Use and application
Add the oil directly to the paint until it reaches the desired consistency. It can be thinned with turpentine. Following the “fat over lean” rule, use a higher proportion of oil in the upper layers of the painting. Excessive amounts extend drying time and soften the paint film. Close the bottle after use and store it away from direct sunlight.
