And I would ask you, when returning the balance of their sample, you kindly favor now by sending a small sample of both Johnsons + Matthey and the German (Paulson) which shall show thickness with and quantity and finish and accompany at with your exact specification. I will forward all + believe the next sample will send you . How was its malliability?
