Thickened linseed oil for oil paints. Makes the paint more fluid, increases gloss, and shortens the drying time. Mixed with Gamsol thinner, it creates a traditional, slow-drying, tacky painting medium. Use sparingly when used as is to avoid a wrinkled surface.

Retouch or intermediate varnish can be used to brighten areas of an unfinished oil painting that have become dull (which can occur if the oil in the paint absorbs into the underlying layers). Apply a thin layer of retouch varnish to the dull area when the paint is touch-dry, and allow it to dry until the varnish is also touch-dry. After this, painting can continue on top of the intermediate varnish.
Intermediate varnish can also be used as a protective, temporary isolation coat when the work is not yet fully dry. Apply it as a thin layer – a too thick layer may potentially soften the underlying paint layer. However, a thin layer of intermediate varnish does not prevent the paint from fully drying; it simply slows down the drying process. The intermediate varnish can later be removed (using mineral spirits or balsam turpentine) or a final picture varnish can be applied over it as desired.

Talens French turpentine (turpentine rectified)
The finest quality available. It is an excellent solvent for thinning oil paints, various painting mediums, and varnishes, as well as for cleaning brushes and tools.
When added to oil paints, it should only be used in the first paint layer. If used undiluted in subsequent layers, it can make the layer too thin and increase the risk of cracking. Turpentine thins oil paint, making it leaner and duller, easier to adhere to the surface, and reduces brush marks. Store turpentine in a sealed bottle and preferably in a dark place to prevent resinification.

Drying oils reduce the thickness of oil paints and accelerate drying, resulting in a strong and durable film on the painting surface. Traditionally, three pure oils have been used as drying oils: linseed oil, poppy seed oil, and safflower oil.
