Description

ORGANIC SWEDISH

Especially bright and colour-fast. Pre-oxidation slightly bleaches the oil and significantly improves its drying properties.
 
Cold-pressed from linseeds, this hardening oil is used for the ecological protection of wood. Highly transparent, chemical-free and food safe with only minimal odour. Linolja can be used directly in its pure form. It is also suitable for producing linseed-oil paint (with iron oxide pigment), as well as being mixed with tar oil for use outdoors.
 
Note: On the Australian market so called 'boiled linseed oil' in times past was in fact boiled in its production process to produce a faster hardening rubbing oil.  Nowadays Boiled Linseed is typically raw with chemical dryers added and is not food safe rated. Dryers used in the wood coatings market have a chequered history as they are predominantly heavy metals such as lead which is toxic hence the switch to un-leaded petrols.
