In particular, it may be used to thicken and stabilize artists oil paints thus resulting in a more uniform consistency. This is especially true when making oil your oil paints from dry pigments. It can also be used as a general thickening agent in combination with other oil painting medium or paint, use it as a varnish over a finished oil painting to get a nice matte finish that can be buffed.
