    This document rates the adhesion of encaustic paint to different substrates. It provides ratings from excellent to poor for how well encaustic adheres to various woods, metals, papers, glasses, and acrylic-based and non-acrylic based paints. Woods such as pine ply and luan ply received excellent ratings while window glass and joint compound were unresolved with support failure. Metals like rusted steel and aluminum also performed well with excellent or good ratings.
