Hi Barrie,

I had this info from before. I emailed mike some time back but he did 
not respond. I will try to call him.

Your note confused me. Is AV-30 and Dinitrol 3125 the same thing? I 
don't get that impression from the UK web sites.

Do you think 3 liters of Dinitrol 3125 is too much for one car -- 
cavities only. I will use something else for the bottom and under the 
fenders.

Thanks,

Don Malling
