Linseed oil paint

Spring and early summer are the best times for exterior painting. Linseed oil paint is the natural choice if you want a color that has historical roots, wonderful luster, is economical, durable and climate-smart. The color is excellent for almost all exterior painting, such as facades, windows, outdoor furniture, fences.

As soon as the temperature rises above 10 degrees and there is a break, it is fine to paint. The drying time is shortened by heat, light and low humidity. The color is as simple as it is brilliant. Linseed oil to protect the wood and make the paint adhere and natural pigments to give the beautiful color. No base paint is needed, but the paint is diluted with linseed oil, low-aromatic white spirit or turpentine according to the manufacturer's recommendation.

At Ovolin, we extract linseed oil paint according to both the NCS and the National Antiquities Authority's system. In addition, we have several color series we developed ourselves, such as Forest Green , Ovolinocker , Geranium Green , Bergsman blue etc. We break the paint by hand without breaking machines and chemical pastes, which means that the paint keeps its color better over time.
