Linseed oil paint has a very high coverage ability: 200 – 250 g on a square meter in two layers. The paint is 6 times thinner than any other similar modern product with the same surface protection capacity. If applied properly linseed oil paint protects exterior elements for at least 10 years. This period is longer under favorable conditions, and even longer in interior works. There are examples where interior doors and windows have not been repainted for 100 – 200 years, and their surface is still pleasing to the eye and the paint still protects the wood. This paint dries while oxidizing with the air, and it does not lose its mass, on the contrary – the mass increases by 1 %. If a drying agent (siccative) is not used, the paint dries for a relatively long period, up to 3 days. To achieve high quality results, the proper priming and painting techniques should be carefully taken into account.
