Linseed oil is not recommended for refinishing vinyl shutters, as it can lead to a sticky residue and may not adhere properly to the vinyl surface. Instead, it's best to use products specifically designed for vinyl, such as vinyl-safe paints or coatings. These alternatives will provide better adhesion and durability while preserving the appearance of the shutters. Always ensure proper cleaning and preparation of the surface before applying any finish.
