Dear Sirs, With reference to our Mr. Miller's call on you yesterday, we are enclosing a small sample of aluminium PLYMAX which is being used so extensively now for car dashboards. The chief advantage of the material is that it eliminates vibrating noise from the engine. The finish which can be obtained is excellent, and if you will kindly send us a blue print of your dashboards we shall be pleased to quote. Yours faithfully, VENESTA LIMITED.
