Good news for oil painters seeking alternatives to toxic solvents!

There are a variety of ways to clean brushes without solvents during a painting session. Gamblin has listened and tested them all. Based on that work, they are proud to offer Gamblin Safflower Oil, which works great as a brush cleaner during a painting session and may also be used as a painting medium. (After a painting session, artists can clean brushes further with Gamsol or soap and water.)

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.

Gamblin Safflower Oil is made in the USA.

Comments about Gamblin Safflower Oil:

I been looking for an alternative solution to painting solvent free environment. This new medium completes my process, no worries of being exposed to much to either vapors given off by solvent or mediums.

I now use winsor newton brush cleaner for cleaning brushes no solvent, and now I have good medium that work better then anything I tried in past. Without any harmful vapors.

In the past I had to make sure I a good ventilation or else I would end up with head ache after each painting secession. I even sometimes would paint with a mask, but not any more. I just wished this was available back then. Yes you can paint in free toxic environment.
