Helpful step-by-step instructions, thank you! I'm curious why turpentine is used in the primer. I haven't seen that included before. Does it perform any special purpose, or can that be skipped?
I am searching but not finding; * is it best to prime and apply one universal undercoat on steel and timber window frames before applying putty * how long must the putty in steel and wood frames be left to 'cure before it can be painted over? * what type of paint is applied directly onto putty
Not mentioned (unless I missed it) linseed oil gives the wood important breathability, so it won't rot.

Why don’t people use this on interior trim instead of gloss?
Thank you very nice tutorial 🙂 What happens if I don't put any turpentine in the oil paint? How much time will it take to dry then?

Don't paint the hardware!!!
While I would agree from an aesthetic point of view linseed oil paint is suitable for metal too
Once you find yourself in the next century ...think about applying a second coat of paint
