(1) A finished sample showing the effect fiber shield has on the silk (We have done this and found it to be acceptable, - but fiber shield is only partially effective) (2) A finished sample showing the effect Stain Sealant has on the silk (Prior tests came out leaving a tacky residue, but clean ability was substantially improved) (3) A finished sample with flame retardant in the backing only. (This should suffice, but if tested my come up short and be rejected by International Jet) (4) A finished sample with flame retardant in the field. (Will meet all flame tests, but leaves silk somewhat brittle and you unhappy.) If given the time to prepare these samples, you will have all the options and be able to make a proper decision. The cost of the carpet only is $50 861.00. Total yardage is 442s/f or 49.11 square yards Please let me know how you would like to proceed. Marc Sacco EFTA01042920
