re: Lets Talk "oil finishes"

Whitacrebespoke, that’s about the third official explanation of how boiled linseed oil got its name I’ve come across.

It’s my understanding flaxseed oil would still harden without other processes. Just not as fast. It reacts with oxygen, which results in the polymerization process, so has even been used to absorb oxygen.

In the end, it appears school is still out.
