Heron Double Boiled Linseed Oil is the fastest drying oil we make. It's useful as an additive to our regular paint line for thinning and decreasing the cure time if weather conditions are less than favorable. Remember to keep your coats thin if our Double Boiled Oil is added to our paint. Too-thick coats can skin over; causing wrinkling and an uncured film. Our Double Boiled Linseed Oil starts out incredibly clean with good drying properties. This allows us to use manganese driers sparingly. For a manganese free option, try our Heat Bodied Oil.
We love using Heron Paints on our projects. They apply well, are long lasting and have a wonderful finish. Using on restoring old iron radiators at Cornell University Fraternity renovation.
Heron Linseed Paint and their products offered are my go-to for my Historic Preservation Projects. It withstands the elements, doesn't blister or peel, and durable to abrasions. I've tried many brands and this one tops the charts. Happy Shopping.
