What is a purpose of retouching medium for oil paintings?

Sometimes you need a break from your arts, but oil paintings do not like when you abandon them. After 2 weeks a layer may become completely dry and fully cured. That means a are painting layer will not bind well and eventually will peel off or show scratches after some touches. To prevent that your painting needs retouching mediums.

What is inside the bottle?

We brewed this retouching medium for you from easy and proven ingredients: linseed oil, dammar resin, turpentine resins and essential oils.

  • Polymerized linseed oil creates adhesion, brightens dull areas and prevents sinking.
  • Turpentine gum improves adhesion and adds flexibility to layers.
  • Damar resin increases durability of a film.
  • Lavender and Rosemary essential oils increase spreading and replace toxic solvents.

How to use?

Apply with a wide brush, let it sit for at least 1-2 hours to be absorbed, remove excess of medium with a soft cloth (if needed) and paint as normal. You may need shorter or longer wait time, depending on  techniques you used and time passed since you touched your work last time.
