Colophony in paint


Do you know whether colophony, when it is a soluble component of paint primer, has been reported as a cause of occ asthma?

I have a convincing case and this is the only sensitiser I can recognise. Have scoured the internet without success.

We cant find any reports of colophony in paint primer as a cause of occupational asthma. We think it would need to be inhaled to cause asthma, this could occur during paint manufacture or if the paint was sprayed.
