The pumice powder has a great ability to soak up the oil. Pumice powder works significantly better than regular chalk when it comes to absorbing oil. Brush a small amount of pumice powder on the glass with a natural brush.   2 lb. # 50609 Price: $14.95

Paint Immediately: You may paint with Linseed Oil Paint right after the Linseed Oil Putty is applied. This is an amazing time saver. The linseed glazing may be used for filling cracks as well.

Instructions for Use: Remove putty from the container and cut/break into four pieces. Heat, two pieces at a time, for ten seconds – test carefully. You may heat the putty for a further ten seconds in five-second intervals, if necessary. Knead the putty until smooth on a cold surface. The microwave will dry the putty slightly; this can be remedied by adding a teaspoon of our raw linseed oil when kneading the product.

Cracked front putty can be temporarily sealed by adding a few drops of turpentine to some fresh putty and applying this with a brush over the top of the cracks. Dry off with paper after about fifteen minutes. Can then be painted immediately.

Consistency of Linseed Oil Glazing Putty: It is very easy to knead the oil into the glazing after you have heated the glazing in a microwave oven for 10 to 15 seconds. Heat with 5 minutes increments. Remove the heated glazing from the container onto a cold surface. Knead the oil into the glazing until it has a doughy consistency. A soft glazing is required when you are going to apply Linseed Oil Putty behind the glass (back bed ) in a sash, (setting the glass into a bed of Linseed Oil Putty). The Linseed Oil Putty also needs to be relatively soft to better adhere to wood or glass. A dry Linseed Oil Putty will crack and subsequently fail within a short time. You can use small amounts of chalk (whiting) to soak up any linseed oil that might have gotten on the glass after applying all the glazing needed. You do not usually have to add any chalk (whiting) to the Linseed Oil Putty itself.

Note: Make sure you apply shellac onto the glazing grooves before you apply any glazing. The applied shellac in the glazing grooves will prevent the oil in the glazing from drying out. This will make the Linseed Oil Putty last for a very long time. Shellac flakes work the best. Mix the shellac flakes with just a few drops of denatured alcohol. The mixture should be of the consistency of syrup. With thick shellac you will only need one coat. Shellac is an excellent barrier. Drying time is one hour. Maintain the paint and the Linseed Oil Putty with the Allback Purified Organic Boiled Linseed Oil or the Linseed Oil Wax.
