Paints & Varnishes

Until the 1930's, most paints were made from Hemp Seed Oil. Hemp Seed Oil makes durable, long lasting paints and varnishes because they contain high levels of Essential Fatty Acids that react with oxygen and dry into a thin film that renders wood water-resistant. 

There is a recent study by Badger paddles in Canada where they tested various oils on their paddles .. and Hemp came out tops!
