Blackfriar Boiled Linseed Oil 250ml. Penetrates deep into wood, providing an attractive ruby tint with a light gloss finish. Blackfriar Boiled Linseed Oil can be used inside and outside and is ideal for bare woods except oak.
Preparation
- Ensure surface to be oiled is smooth, clean, dry and free of contamination.
- For surfaces previously treated with oils or waxes clean back the surface to bare timber with fine wire wool and white spirit, working along the grain.
Application
- Ensure the product is thoroughly shaken prior to use.
- Apply oil liberally by brush or rag.
- Leave for a few minutes for the oil to absorb into the wood then wipe off any surplus.
- Allow the oil to dry overnight before using or recoating.
- When applying to new wood thin the first coat with 10% white spirit.
- Thinning – Maximum 10% white spirit.
- Coverage Rate: Up to 10 square metres per litre per coat. Will depend upon the porosity of the wood.
- Drying Time: 12 hours. Drying times are based on an ambient temperature of 20°C and 50% relative humidity. Lower temperatures or higher humidity will prolong the drying and overcoating times.
Limitations
- If used on exterior projects regular maintenance will be required to keep the wood nourished.
- On previously sealed surfaces some oils may dry to a slight gloss.
- This can be reduced by gently rubbing the surface with fine wire wool and wax polish, working with the grain.
