We have pre-mixed primers but here are the instructions for mixing your own primer if you prefer.
The Primer Formula:
Linseed Oil Paint 50%
Raw Linseed oil 35%
Balsam Turpentine 15%
For example, to make up 1L of Primer Coat you will need 500ml of paint / 350ml of raw linseed oil / 150ml of balsam turpentine.
Primer Mixing Instructions:
In a clean bucket or empty paint tin mix linseed oil paint, raw linseed oil and balsam turpentine in the following ratios:
50% linseed oil paint, 35% raw linseed oil and 15% balsam turpentine.
Measurements do not have to be exact but the paint must be nice and thin for the first application.
Give this mixture a really good stir before applying.
