Galkyd Light

Just a note.

I have a friend who is a floral painter among others. I told him about Galkyd and Liquin. He is really sorry he has used them as they both yellow.

I think since a lot of portrait work is done on commission we don't see many of our paintings ever again and we don't see this result. He has paintings he did years ago for comparison. This of course is anecdotal and not scientific evidence (so my scientific professor husband tells me).

He has pointed this out to me. All plastics ( acrylics whatever) yellow with time. If you have ever seen an acrylic window exposed to light over time you will see that it yellows.

His credentials on request.
