Firstly, it gives the paint rust inhibiting properties and helps prevent rust on painted surfaces – even when rust is already present. It also improves the flow and workability of the paint, maintaining the ‘wet edge’ for longer and reducing brush and roller marks. Finally, it also gives the paint a better viscosity which allows painting work to be carried out in more extreme cold, heat and windy conditions. Unlike damaging paint thinners it does all this without altering the inherent qualities or the finish of the paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that if you are looking for a product to give this effect but for water-based paints then please use \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tradepaintdirect.co.uk\/products\/owatrol-floetrol-paint-conditioner-for-emulsions\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Floetrol water-based paint conditioner\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eFloetrol\u003c\/a\u003e instead as it is designed for use in any water-based paint whereas Owatrol Oil is for use in oil-based paints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing Owatrol Oil for wood impregnation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen used on wood surfaces Owatrol Oil saturates the wood and protects it from damage caused by moisture.
