| X1109 C. EFC. BY/RD/ML/14.6.24. RE INSULATING SLEEVING. We send you two samples of Insulating Sleeving - "Sistoflex" and "Derby". Would you give these a test by suspending them under the bonnet of one of the Experimental Cars for a month, we should then see if the heat causes them to become brittle and split. Samples herewith.
