GUIDE FOR USE
You can add linseed oil to your oil paints to increase flow; however, an excess will lead to some yellowing due to the natural colour of the oil.
Apply the paint layers thinly to avoid other defects of excess, such as wrinkling
During the winter months, it is entirely normal for linseed oil to undergo a process known as clouding or thickening due to the lower temperatures.
Linseed oil contains fatty acids that can solidify or become more viscous in colder conditions.
This natural occurrence does not affect the quality of the oil; however, it can make application challenging.
To address this issue, simply warm the linseed oil before use. Placing the container in a warm water bath or exposing it to a slightly elevated temperature will help restore the oil to its liquid state, making it easier to apply and ensuring that it maintains its desirable properties.
This simple step allows for a smoother application of linseed oil, preserving its effectiveness
