Most people wouldn't put up with the quirks of ultramarine blue if it wasn't so dang pretty. Ultramarine blue has the highest lightfastness rating yet it is sensitive to acids in the environment and it slowly reacts with linseed oil causing fading and or discoloration.
This is why we use an encapsulated ultramarine pigment that shields against such acids.
In certain environments fading of the rich blue will certainly happen. But it's fixable. The faded paint can be brought back to life by simply applying purified linseed oil to the surface.
Because of the nature of ultramarine blue we suggest using this peculiar but beautiful color on easily maintained surfaces like doors or readily reachable trim.
Ultramarine blue pigment absorbs a fair amount of oil which may slow the drying of the paint film compared to our other colors.

Raw/thirsty/weathered wooden surfaces will require a saturating coat of Purified Linseed Oil or an oil-thinned coat of paint. No separate primer is required. The same paint may be used for all coats.

Paint Coverage: 150 - 205 Sq. Ft. Per Quart/ 3-4 mils wet film thickness, depending on surface texture/porosity and type of pigment. (This is more than twice the surface area of conventional paint coverage.)
