Pale, Slow-Drying Oil for Mixing, Cleaning, and Enhancing Oil Paint Flow
This light-colored, slow-drying oil is an excellent alternative to linseed oil, offering artists increased control over paint flow and drying time. It is especially well-suited for whites and light colors, as it doesn’t yellow over time and enhances the brilliance of delicate hues. When used as a medium, it softens the texture of oil paint, making it easier to manipulate on the canvas.
In addition to its use in painting, it serves as a solvent-free brush cleaner during studio work. It can also be combined with odorless mineral spirits to create a traditional, slow-drying, low-viscosity medium for a range of oil painting techniques.
