SIENNA
The pastes we offer contain only pure, powdered pigment that is saturated with a little linseed oil. To obtain linseed oil paint, you must add oil to the pastes. You can mix the linseed oil paint as you wish by adding raw, cold-bleached, boiled linseed oil (indoor use), oil varnish or wood tar (outdoor use). Freshly mixed paint also provides the best drying properties. A thin mix can also be applied as a »stain« (visible wood structure). The pastes can be mixed with each other. Detailed instructions for mixing and application come with the products. Coverage 60-100 ml/m² with a finished mix ratio of 1:1. 500 ml linseed oil paste cover approx. 10-15 m².
Linseed oil paint has a long and proven tradition as indoor and outdoor paint. It has the following excellent properties:
- 100 % natural ingredients
- Diffusion-permeable - the wood can »breathe«
- Can be applied to oiled and already painted surfaces
- Stabilises the surface
- Natural UV protection
- Is absorbed by the wood, thus prevents unwanted layers from building up and avoids peeling off
- Long shelf life - can still be used after long storage
- Content 500 ml
