Ten year old Incralac varnish on four outdoor gold plated bronze statues in Washington, D.C., was found to be cracked and insoluble. The Incralac was removed from the statues by softening with paint remover containing methylene chloride followed by pressurized water spray. In comparison with fresh Incralac, the ultraviolet absorption of the weathered material was greater and the benzotriazole had mostly disappeared. The infrared spectrum was little changed.
