| This is an example of the penetration
power of organic linseed oil. It soaks deep into the wood
protecting the wood from absorbing and trapping water and
moisture. This is a feature that can not be reproduced with
any wood preservative made from petroleum products today.
In addition, organic linseed oil is not dangerous to work
with and is completely safe for the environment. |

| Organic purified linseed oil has been taking care of the Teak wood in the cockpit of this boat for three years. This is the only solution that is nourishing the wood this well. It looks very nice. The surface is cleaned with the organic linseed oil soap yearly and then wiped down with a very thin coat of the organic boiled linseed oil. |
About Allback Purified Organic Linseed Oil
People have known about the unique properties of linseed oil for
several thousand years. Linseed oil penetrates into wood, protecting
it from moisture and rot.
Linseed oil is cold pressed from the seeds of the flax flower.
This is done "cold" to prevent impurities getting into
the oil.
The raw linseed oil is purified and refined through the addition
of oxygen to produce boiled or "cooked" linseed oil. This process
eliminates protein and improves aspects such as the drying time,
shine and purity. Allback purified linseed oil is mold
and mildew-free.
Uses:
- Thinning the Linseed Oil Paint.
- Maintenance of old Linseed Oil Painted surfaces.
- May be used as a first coat on extremely dried out wood.
- Add a few ounces of paint to the boiled linseed oil to create
a stain.
- Purified Raw Linseed Oil is excellent for long term storage
of paint brushes.
Tip: You can heat with gentle, infrared heat (we
recommend the Silent
Paint Remover) to boost surface penetration.
NOTE: Rags soaked in linseed oil may self-ignite. Soak them
in water and dispose of them. |
