Thanks Droopy

1/3 of the way there as I remember Kilfrost is indeed a part of the Abreviation.

Ok Guys,

Thanks a lot. I have the answer. Having 1/3 help as I could use this to search further on the ISH.

Well it stands for the 3 companies that developed the De-Ice product in the second world war which were: Tecalemit, Kilfrost (thanks Droopy ) and Sheepbridge-Stokes.

Regards
