Subject: Styrene acrylic copolymer
I am trying to identify the Artists paint trade name and/or Resin brand of a styrene/nbutylacrylate/methyl methacrylate varnish from approximately 1972. The painting itself is reputedly painted in Aquatec (Bocour Inc). The artist thinks it was probably a Lefranc varnish (or medium)but can't remember. It may be Liquitex. I have found references to styrene/acrylic copolymers in use in Britain (Vinacryl 712) but has anyone analysed Aquatec varnish, Liquitex varnish or found styrene/acrylics showing up elsewhere? *** Conservation DistList Instance 15:40 Distributed: Tuesday, December 4, 2001 Message Id: cdl-15-40-012 ***Received on Monday, 3 December, 2001
