Linseed oil paint for wood - application

100% natural linseed oil paint for wood for interior and exterior work from Sweden. Tested for more than 30 years in the harshest weather conditions in the Nordic countries and elsewhere in the world. Does not contain solvents and stabilizers.

Allbäck linseed oil paints are suitable for all types of wooden surfaces . In interior works, it is used for painting furniture, walls, ceilings, doors and floors. In outdoor work, linseed oil paints are especially suitable as wood facade paints , their coating penetrates deeply into the wood, does not crack, does not peel, protects against UV radiation and repels moisture, preserving the natural properties of wood. Widely used in restoration.

Consumption

When painting with natural Allbäck linseed oil paints, it is possible to cover 15-25m2 of planed wooden surfaces with 1L of paint . The consumption for the first time of painting may be higher.

For complete protection, we recommend applying the paint in 3 layers, as it is naturally absorbed into the wood and polymerizes, forming a durable and sustainable protective layer.

Drying time

Average 24 h at temp. +20 ̊C. Lower temperatures, damp air and wood can significantly extend the drying time.

Recommendations

For outdoor work, we recommend adding the natural mineral additive zinc oxide (ZnO) , which is available in our store, to the paint . ZnO is added to the paint in the range of about 10-20% (20% for light tones, 10% for dark ones) to provide additional protection against UV radiation. ZnO is a natural mineral widely used in the production of natural linseed oil dyes, as well as in cosmetics (sunscreens), pharmaceuticals and other products.

We also recommend adding ZnO in cases where the surface to be painted will be exposed to intensive use - floors, table tops, cabinets, which will provide an even more sustainable coating.

Surfaces exposed to direct atmospheric effects (terrace floor, garden furniture, fences, etc.) are recommended to be primed with cold-pressed Allbäck linseed oil at least once before painting, providing additional protection against moisture.

How to choose a color shade?

The color tone on the screen may differ slightly from the color tone on the surface after painting, which can be affected by things like lighting or the type of wood material. One of the advantages of our offer is the available color samples in 200ml packaging . If you are not sure how the chosen shade will look in your home or environment, first order one or more shades in a 200ml package and try them on the surface you plan to paint. A surface covered with our linseed oil paint can be repainted with another shade without restrictions, so don't be afraid to experiment and try before choosing the right shade!

We also offer a color swatch set with 33 shades with 100% match to our linseed oil color shades. A set of color shades will allow you to choose the most suitable shade for your environment and lighting.
