Le Tonkinois GELOMAT -
Linseed Oil Varnish additive to reduce gloss.
0.5 Qt / 0.5 Liter
Mix into the high gloss Le Tonkinios varnish for a lower gloss surface. Le Tonkinois is naturally glossy; each successive coat increases the depth and brilliance of the gloss. For a matte, satin or semi-gloss finish, add Gelomat to the final coat. Add 1 part Gelomat to 1 part varnish for full matte, 1 part to 2 parts varnish for satin, 1 part to 3 parts varnish for semi-gloss or alter the proportions to give the finish you prefer. This mixture forms a very thin layer that takes somewhat longer to cure. Produces a very durable and long lasting matte finish for your home or in any marine application. Outlasts any other varnish many times over! Easy to maintain by adding coats over time. Does not crack or peel. Naturally UV resistant. 100% organic and environmentally safe.
This is an excellent hard surface linseed oil varnish for
high traffic interior floors. Apply on a dry and clean surface.
Preparation of surface: Clean the surface with linseed oil
soap: Wet the surface with water and apply the linseed oil
soap directly onto the wood surface. Scrub with a stainless
steel scrub pad. Wipe surface with a microfiber cloth. Let
dry. First few coats should always be the organic raw linseed
oil that will soak deep into the wood making the linseed oil
varnish last significantly longer. Not suitable for any exterior
applications. This varnish is an irritant when applying.

DIY Workbench Project: Le Tonkinois Linseed Oil Varnish
Rebuilding A Historic Yacht - Torture Boards,
Plugs, Varnish!
Le
Tonkinois is a natural varnish without any solvents or chemicals
that is based on Linseed oil and Tung oil. It is completely environment
friendly; it dries quickly and can be recoated after 24 hours. Le
Tonkinois Linseed Oil Varnish is equally at home inside and outside.
It withstands walking and persistent humid conditions and is ultraviolet
light resistant. These characteristics make the product ideal for
a marine environment. It withstands abrasion, seawater and weather.
Directly on wood:
The Linseed Oil Varnish is excellent for applying directly onto
new wood as well. This is extremely long lasting and is superior
to any petroleum base varnish.
Wooden
Floors: This varnish oil is also very suitable for wooden floors and
stair cases. We recommend applying the varnish with our Double
Wide Brush with Natural Bristles (very effective on large
surfaces, floors, Walls etc.)
Marine
exterior use:
Because of the absence of volatile solvents, the varnish builds
up quickly such that four layers suffice to give a coat of approximately
200 microns. A layer this thick is ample protection against water
penetration. Blisters do not form and the layer is sufficiently
hard to withstand abrasive action and modest mechanical impact,
yet is elastic enough not to crack.
