Linseed oil paint graphite

NCS Code: 8400-N

Graphite is especially suitable for painting iron and sheet metal. The pigment consists of a greasy mineral carbon that is also used as a lubricant and for lead pencils. Surfaces painted with Graphite linseed oil paint get a beautiful, slightly shimmering luster. On bare iron outdoors, first prime with our red lead as rust protection.

Example: A painted sheet metal roof is heavily exposed to UV light, ice, and snow, leading to a rapid breakdown of the linseed oil that binds the paint. If the roof is painted with Graphite, the greasy pigment holds the paint surface together in a fantastic way, and the roof stays beautiful year after year.

Of course, you can also paint with Graphite on wood and other surfaces.

Keep in mind that Graphite rubs off a bit when you chafe it, so choose to paint on surfaces where this is not a problem.
