Japan drier ? the old saying was " boiled through the bung hole" It's use
instead of a well prepared oil caused faster drying and poorer end result.
I'm sure John is right , the mix has changed. Old recipes called for about a
pound of red lead per gallon of oil. Dan - try Waterlox products, my
favorite 216-641-4877 I've got a question too has anyone had any problems
keeping paint on linseed oil based putty. This may be a peelaway type
problem. We replaced glass in many previously stripped windows and have not
been able to keep paint on the putty. Changed putty and paint - same result.
The paint wrinkles on the putty.
