Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies} EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} E.6/HP.25.4.36. re Seapak.Insulation. We should like to have as soon as possible the results of testing Seapak insulation for smell under conditions imposed by the presence of heat and moisture. We are assuming that the Seapak insulation may have been in contact with water owing to leakage between the scuttle and the dash, and that it will then be run in this state and subjected to heat from the dashboard.
