How do you determine if a paint chip is epoxy acrylic or chlorinated rubber?

To determine if a paint chip is epoxy acrylic or chlorinated rubber, you can conduct a solvent test. Apply a small amount of acetone to the chip; if the paint dissolves, it's likely epoxy acrylic. In contrast, chlorinated rubber typically requires a solvent like xylene or toluene to dissolve. Additionally, checking the paint's finish and flexibility can provide clues, as epoxy acrylic is often more rigid, while chlorinated rubber is more flexible.
