-2- The dangerous constituent of the mixture is the mineral oil since it attacks any form of rubber and it thus has disastrous results to the jacking system. We trust the foregoing additional information may be of interest and service. As before, it is given confidentially for your private use, and we disclaim any responsibility for the result of any action which you may take based upon it. Yours faithfully, SILVERTOWN LUBRICANTS LIMITED | ||
