Polymerised Linseed Oil for Wood
Linseed Oil for Wood - Durable, Natural Timber Protection
Gilly’s Polymerised Linseed Oil is a premium linseed oil for wood designed to seal, protect, and enhance timber surfaces. Through a specialised heat-treatment process, the oil is partially polymerised to deliver faster curing, improved durability, and a more consistent finish than traditional raw linseed oil.
This high-performance wood finishing oil penetrates deep into timber fibres while forming a hard, flexible, water-resistant barrier. It helps protect against wear, moisture, and weathering while reducing yellowing over time, so your timber maintains its natural look.
Free from solvents, driers, and synthetic additives, this natural linseed oil for wood is a non-toxic option suitable for homes, workshops, and food-contact surfaces once fully cured.
