Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

new material for use in engine gaskets of all types, is that it can be cut to shape by means of scissors. Known as Plexeal, it is built up of aluminium foil bonded together by a special synthetic resin. As the Plexeal gasket heats up in use, the synthetic resin first softens and then cures to form a plastic seal over the exposed edges of the laminations.

Plexeal is sold in sheet form in the following sizes: 18 ins. by 7 ins., 28 ins. by 9 ins., and 35 ins. by 9 ins. Taking its efficiency for granted, the material has the advantage of being readily fashioned into any type of gasket that may be required.

Full information regarding Plexeal may be obtained from Plexeal, Ltd., Haddenharn. Bucks.
