Forever raw linseed oil is a natural and proven solution to protect, nourish and enhance all your woodwork, indoors and out. Extracted by cold pressing from linseed seeds, this 100% natural plant oil penetrates deep into the wood fibres to protect it durably against moisture, stains and external damage. It is perfectly suited for furniture, parquet, wood panelling, decking, and also for porous materials such as stone or terracotta. Regular application prevents drying out and reveals a warm satin finish that enhances the natural beauty of the wood.
Before application, ensure the surface is clean, dry and dust-free. For new wood, light sanding improves oil penetration. Apply the raw linseed oil in thin coats using a brush, cloth or applicator, following the direction of the wood grain. Allow to penetrate for 15 to 30 minutes, then wipe away excess with a lint-free cloth to prevent drips and greasy residue on the surface.
Drying time varies depending on temperature, humidity and the type of wood being treated. Allow several days between each coat. For best results and enhanced protection, repeat the application in two to three successive coats. Regular maintenance once or twice a year, depending on exposure, will maintain the satin finish and wood protection over time.
For exterior applications, choose dry and mild weather conditions. Always test on a discreet area first to check compatibility and final appearance on your surface.

For your projects, keep in mind that raw linseed oil excels as a first impregnation coat on highly porous wood thanks to its slow drying, which allows deep penetration. If your client seeks rapid drying or a high-traffic wood project, direct them towards boiled linseed oil instead. Raw oil remains the preferred choice for terracotta tiles, earthenware and raw paving where its deep action guarantees lasting protection. Make sure to inform your clients of the prolonged drying time to avoid any scheduling inconvenience.
Raw linseed oil is a pure oil that has undergone no treatment. Its drying time is very long, potentially taking several days or even weeks, but it penetrates deeper into the wood. Boiled linseed oil is treated to accelerate drying and is better suited to industrial applications requiring fast drying.
Raw linseed oil is suitable for all indoor and outdoor surfaces: raw wood (except exotic wood), terracotta tiles, tiles, earthenware, paving, stone cladding, canvas and cement mixes. However, avoid high-traffic wood where boiled oil would be more suitable.
It is recommended to apply 2 to 3 coats for optimal protection. Apply in thin coats using a brush, roller or cloth, allowing sufficient drying time between each coat.
Yes, raw linseed oil offers effective protection against moisture, frost, fungi and wood-boring insects. Its water-repellent properties and antistatic nature make it a particularly suitable impregnator for external timber, provided high-traffic areas are avoided.
Absolutely. Raw linseed oil is used in the fine arts as a binder for oil paint pigments. It allows the production and dilution of oil colours.
