Swedish Linseed Oil Paint - Zinc White

Ottosson Färgmakeri Swedish Linseed Oil Paint - Zinc White

Please Note: Zinc White is not to be confused with White Titanium Zinc. Zinc White is transparent and not to be used a white linseed oil paint, but rather used as a 'white breaking paint' for color shading. 

Zinc white linseed oil paint has poor hiding power and is primarily useful as a white breaking paint for color shading. Zinc white linseed oil paint gives increased shine and hardness to the paint surface. The content should not exceed 30% by weight in a finishing coat outdoors as there is a risk of cracking.

Thanks to its transparency, zinc white can be used for white glazes if you add linseed oil/turpentine. Zinc white has a well-known ability to prevent the growth of algae and mold.

Applications:

• Dilution of linseed oil paint for custom colors
• Mix with linseed oil paint for increased shine and hardness to the paint surface
  
• Mix with linseed oil and/or turpentine to create a white glaze
• Helps to prevent growth of mold and algae
