1) Reduces the consistancy of oil colour

2) Increases transparency

3) Improves the flow

4) On its own, it gives colours a high gloss

5) Added to colours it results in a glaze effect

6) Mixed 50/50 with turps or low odour thinners, it provides a good, general purpose paint medium for oil painting

7) Slows down the drying time. This quality mades it ideal for underpainting and for the initial layers in painting.
