Choosing the right Linseed Timber Oil

How to choose the right DIGGERS™ Linseed Timber Oil for your project.

Applying Timber Oil to your deck, fences, outdoor &/or indoor furniture and cabinets will help to seal and protect the timber, making it last longer when regularly maintained. However, in order to achieve the best results, it’s important to choose the right timber oil suitable for the job and it’s desired purpose.

To help you decide on the best Linseed Timber Oil to use from the DIGGERS™ range, here is a run-down of their specs and typical uses:

Timber Oil Raw Concentrate:

This raw concentrate oil is a 100% natural raw linseed oil. It can be mixed with DIGGERS™ Mineral Turpentine (50:50 ratio) to seal and protect outdoor furniture, fences, gazebos and unfinished wooden cricket bats. It leaves a light stain on pale woods and creates a protective film on the timber that is generally impervious to water, heat, scratches and most stains.
