Damar Medium

This heavy resin-oil painting medium contains damar resin and linseed stand oil as binders.
The main difference from the traditional 1:1:1 formula is the use of the mild Eco-House solvent system instead of turpentine and the addition of lead-free driers (cobalt-zirconium-calcium octoates), which reduce the drying time substantially.
The damar resin adds brilliance and luminosity to colors and mechanical hardness to the paint coat.
The linseed stand oil adds elasticity and moisture resistance to the paint coat.
It improves flow and leveling of paints.
It has less of a tendency to yellow than plain linseed oil.
