This study looks at the glue mounting of Eclipses by J.M. Sicilia. The thick layers of wax used on the entire surface of this work of art on paper required a modification of the usual mounting practices. To adapt the float mounting system, it was first necessary to study the adhesive power of six synthetic adhesives: four acrylic adhesives (Lascaux 360HV, Plexisol P550, Paraloid B-72, and Solucryl 356) and two vinyl adhesives (BEVA 371 Original Formula and Mowital B60HH). The mechanical properties necessary for this project are different from those that commonly come into play during the consolidation or reattachment of small pieces of wax. We therefore studied the shear strength and peeling resistance of adhesives used to attach non-woven hinges to new wax. The study identified three acrylic adhesives that met the project specifications: pure Lascaux 360HV, Plexisol P550 diluted in acetone to 66%, and Solucryl 356 diluted in toluene to 50%. The aging properties of the first two are relatively known, and they will be the preferred method for the project.
