Linseed Oil Paint for Wood - Application

Allbäck linseed oil paint "Vintage pink" is a natural linseed oil paint for both interior and exterior wood surfaces, made in Sweden. These paints have been tested for over 30 years under the harshest weather conditions in the Nordic countries and beyond. They are among the purest natural paints on the market, as they contain no petroleum-based solvents or stabilizers.

Allbäck linseed oil paints are suitable for all types of wooden surfaces. Indoors, they are used for painting furniture, walls, ceilings, doors, and floors. Outdoors, linseed oil paints are especially suitable as facade and window paints. They penetrate deep into the wood, do not crack or peel, protect against UV rays, and repel moisture while preserving the wood’s natural properties. They are widely used in restoration projects.

Why Choose Allbäck Linseed Oil Paints?

• 100% natural composition – free from petroleum-based solvents, synthetic stabilizers, and harmful additives.
• Deep penetration into wood – does not form a film, does not peel or crack, allowing the wood to "breathe."
• Low consumption – covers twice the area compared to industrial alkyd or acrylic paints.
• Ideal for historic building restoration – widely used in heritage conservation projects worldwide.
• No harmful fumes – especially safe for indoor use, eco-friendly, and non-toxic.
• Easy to renew and sustainable – can be repainted without sanding or removing the old paint.

Coverage

When painting with natural Allbäck linseed oil paints, 1L of paint can cover 15-25m² of planed wood surface. The consumption may be higher for the first coat.

For exterior applications, we recommend applying three coats since the paint naturally absorbs into the wood and polymerizes, forming a durable and long-lasting protective layer.

Drying Time

Around 24 hours at +20°C. Lower temperatures and high humidity can significantly extend the drying time.

Recommendations

For outdoor applications, we recommend adding the natural mineral supplement zinc oxide (ZnO), available in our store. ZnO should be added at approximately 10-20% of the paint volume (20% for light shades, 10% for dark shades) to provide additional UV protection. ZnO is a natural mineral widely used not only in natural linseed oil paints but also in cosmetics (sunscreens), pharmaceuticals, and other products.

We also recommend adding ZnO if the painted surface will be subject to heavy use – such as floors, tabletops, and cabinets – to ensure an even more durable coating.

Surfaces exposed to direct weather conditions (windows, terraces, floors, garden furniture, fences, etc.) should be primed at least once with cold-pressed Allbäck linseed oil before painting to provide additional moisture protection.

Color Shade

The color on the screen may slightly differ from the actual shade on the surface after application, depending on factors such as lighting or the type of wood. We recommend applying the paint to a small area first to ensure the chosen shade works in your setting.
