## Overview

Gamblin Safflower Oil is an 8.5 oz bottle of non-yellowing, slow-drying oil designed for artists seeking a solvent-free medium. Ideal for enhancing light colors and cleaning brushes safely, it offers a healthier alternative to traditional mineral spirits without compromising paint quality or drying time.

## Description

This listing is for one (1) brand new Gamblin Safflower Oil in a 8.5oz bottle. Gamblin Safflower Oil is lighter in color than linseed oil, non-yellowing, and slow-drying. It is an excellent medium for passages of white and other light colors, making them sparkle and pop. Safflower oil also makes an excellent solvent-free brush cleaner during painting sessions.

Review: The best safflower oil that is readily available. - Given that linseed oil at a reasonable price is hard to find here, I decided to go with safflower oil. I'm trying to slowly steer away from using odorless turp/mineral spirits. My body sometimes acts up for no reason and I get headaches, pressure on my chest, and fatigue/nausea, even with ventilation. I cannot open my windows in the winter because of the frigid cold air here, and there is no heating unit in my house either, so it's me trying to stay warm in a 55 degree house. I don't want to end up in the hospital so I purchased this on a whim, and so far I really liked it. I recently ordered a couple tubes of Isaro oil paint and found that the burnt umber was leaking upon arrival and the leaked oil had become gel outside the tube. The paint was so dry it was like applying powder to my canvas, and I added just a brush tip of the oil to the paint and it was brought to life. This cleans my brushes better than baby oil, which is NOT a drying oil, so DO NOT apply paint onto your canvas right after cleaning your brush with baby oil. Your work will NEVER dry. If you need to use baby oil for budget reasons make sure you rinse it out with turp or OMS thoroughly before continuing with your painting. For additional measures have another jar of your choice of solvent nearby for an extra rinse. My only gripe is that merchants who are shipping this on their own and desertcart themselves should be careful about packing this. I received mine in the standard white padded pack with the blue logos patterned around it. It was delivered via UPS, who are infamous for throwing around their packages carelessly and somehow losing them in transit. There was zero packing material other than the oil bottle itself. I'm still surprised as to how it didn't end up leaking as it traveled from the East Coast to West.
Review: No more Gamsol - Non toxic and Solvent-Free! - I quit oil painting for months because I was afraid of the toxicity that mineral spirits possess. At the time, I was using Gamsol. As much as I loved using Gamsol, it was toxic; sure it is odorless but there are still fumes evaporating and i paint in my own room - which was a concern. I would sleep, eat, and work in my room all while my paint is still curing from the mineral spirits that i would use to thin out the paint. Nonetheless, not only do I use this as my medium but also as my brush cleaner. It works great and I have no complaints at all!! However, unlike Gamsol which you can reuse to clean and thin (as pigment settles to the bottom), with this, the oil just turns mucky so you cant have an infinite amount of usages like with Gamsol (unless im unaware of a certain method that does that?) Overall, very happy with this purchase and i can now paint with a peace of mind that im not damaging my health in the long run! Happy painting!
