Poppy Seed Oil, 1 l

Food safe oil extracted from the seeds of the white poppy flower (Papaver somniferum) is ideal for fine craftwork objects, turned parts, toys, kitchen furniture and kitchen utensils. Because of its good grip, it is suitable for knife and tool handles and, along with pigments, for making valuable paint oils and artists’ colours. The high transparency of poppy seed oil makes it the perfect base for violin varnishes and clear protective wood finishes. It provides excellent protection against moisture and dirt, does not yellow, and penetrates deeply into the wood. Poppy seed oil dries much slower than linseed oil. Multiple coats of poppy seed oil yield a warm, silky gloss and a surface which is pleasant to the touch. Poppy seed oil can be mixed with other vegetable oils and solvents.
