fg Se STERILIZING CLOTH 
After years of experimenting we have found a heavy plastic material that makes 
the best sterilizing blanket so far. Strong (heavy 12 gauge), yet flexible. 
Accidental tears or punctures can be easily repaired by placing a piece cut off 
the end over the hole with a piece of cloth over and under the patch, and then 
applying a hot iron for 5 seconds. 
Makes a tight joint at bench edges. 
Light (11 ozs. a sq. yd.) and easy to handle. 
Transparent. 
Available in any length or width, but pieces 6 ft. or 8 ft. wide are the most
