This is a copy of an e-mail I received from Crystal1. I thought I would share it with you.

Judy, at WetCanvas in WMO, there's a notice from Kyle @ Royal Talens,
notifying WMO artists that the National Conservation Gallery, has said
that mixing acrylics and WMOs will not last over time. I don't know how
to put that information out here, but figure that we need to somehow
let everybody know.

I think it would be more correct to say that they don't know what will happen so they don't recommend the mixture as it doesn't make sense to them to try it. I'm not aware of any specific testing that's been done that would make the failure an absolute condition.

I mixed some of my Opens with Cobra to get a specific color and it seems to be doing just fine after 8 months. I do suggest that you only use it mixed in with another color. It would make sense that if you put it on top of a WSO without mixing it in, that would be a problem. Any body else have some experience with this.
