It is available wherever you find paint. Right next to the thinners and solvents. It comes prebolied. Linseed oil is an old bike wheelbuilders trick on spokes and nipples. The stuff never dries hard just gets gummy. Enough to provide a little locktite/antisieze benefit. I use it on almost all the steel/aluminum thread junctions with my car. It takes days to weeks to dry though so doesn't give immediate benefit like normal locktite does.
