Using a silver pencil, measure and then mark the following. Next, we’re going to divide the steel into five different sections. For your first go at this, start with 7” and later you can experiment with different lengths based on your requirements. Start by cutting the ½” square stock to your desired length. Leave brushes to fully dry before using for oil colours.ħ-14 days to touch dry.Video can’t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: Forging A Twisted Door Pull REPLICA () Prepping the Stock For further washing apply a small quantity of Langridge Safe-Clean-Up or Marseille or other pure olive oil soap and massage the bristles of the brush to release any remaining colour. The colour of the oil will not affect the oil colours with which it is mixed.Ĭlean brushes with any artists’ solvent (eg Gum Turpentine, Low Toxic Solvent, etc.). Langridge Stand Oil is a honey-thick, pale yellow colour liquid with a characteristic Linseed Oil odour. The use of the latter solvents (petroleum distillates) will tend to reduce the fatness of stroke and the oil film will dry with less richness due to the partial destruction of the paint film. However, Artists’ White Spirit or Langridge Low Toxic Solvent may be substituted. After 3-6 months a final Picture Varnish of the desired matte or gloss quality can be applied.įor best results thin with Distilled Gum Turpentine. The application of Langridge Isolating Medium will help to even out these finishes prior to applying a final Picture Varnish (See.). This process is not providing a removable artists’ varnish, so the application of Retouch Varnish is still recommended. If these are very pronounced, a picture varnish cannot even these differences out completely. To even out the final reflective quality of the paintingĭue to differences in the gloss or matte sheen of individual paints a finished picture generally has a range of reflective finishes within it. ![]() In this case ‘oiling-out’ can rectify the paint film. The oil from the paint is absorbed into the support, leaving the pigment underbound and the surface liable to crack or dust/flake off. canvas) is poorly primed, oil colours will ‘sink-in’ to the surface and exhibit a dull and lifeless colour reflection. Mediums made with Stand Oil as their primary oil dry to a tough flexible film with a gloss finish.įor the prevention of sinking-in of paint As a general rule it is considered a slow drying ‘fat’ oil and care should be used when using as an ‘underpainting medium’. If a medium made with over 50% Stand Oil is added to oil colours the resulting paint film will exhibit an enamel finish with little or no physically raised brush marks.īecause Stand Oil cannot be used without dilution, the proportion of oil to solvent determines whether it is a ‘fat’ or ‘lean’ medium. Stand Oil has pronounced levelling qualities. This allows for a wet-in-wet technique with very controlled manipulation of paint including soft blending. The wet, but tacky, paint surface can be readily painted into. Oil colours are best milled in drying oils with a higher acid level, such as Cold Pressed Linseed Oil.įor use of alternative solvents see ‘Working Properties -Thinning’.Īfter 20-30 minutes of applying Stand Oil based mediums the surface will set-up to a tack that grabs any succeeding brush strokes. ![]() It is not suitable for milling oil colours due to its viscosity and low pH. The process of polymerisation, however, makes Stand Oil thick and honey-like which cannot be used without the addition of artists’ solvent. ![]() Langridge Stand Oil is diluted with Distilled Gum Turpentine or another appropriate artists’ solvent to produce Oil Mediums.Ī unique quality of Stand Oil compared to all other natural artists’ drying oils is it is virtually non-yellowing. ![]()
