Many people would like to use linseed oil paints both in and outdoors, but complain that the paint dries slowly. What should I bear in mind?
The slower drying time is the reason why linseed oil paint is superior to any acrylic paint product available today. The linseed oil paint’s drying environment is affected by the quality of material, manufacturing process, temperature, ventilation, daylight, humidity, the absorption capacity of the surface and the thickness of the paint layer. Applying a thin coat with a stiff natural brush is very important because of these various circumstances. Most painters and homeowners can paint one coat of linseed oil per day. Return to FAQ.
