Description
A thick, partially oxidized form of linseed oil that dries faster than regular linseed oil. Sun-refined oil is mixed with water, then exposed to air and sun for several weeks. The oil is shaken with the water, to allow impurities to be extracted and removed. Sun-refined oil is similar to sun-thickened oil and has been used for paint media for centuries.
