              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                October 28, 1995
                                  (Unaudited)


1.       GENERAL

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
         condensed in certain respects and should therefore be read in
         conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
         notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders
         on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 1995.  Certain
         reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts in order to be
         consistent with the current year presentation.

         In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed
         consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary
         (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) to present fairly
         the financial position of the Company as of October 28, 1995, and the
         results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months
         ended October 28, 1995 and October 29, 1994.  Results of the Company's
         operations for the three and nine months ended October 28, 1995 are
         not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
         year.

2.       INVENTORIES

         For the nine months ended October 28, 1995, the weighted average
         interest rate on the loans under bank credit agreements was 8.0%.

         In August 1988, the Company entered into an 8-year Interest Rate Swap
         agreement.  The notional amount of the swap totaled $8 million at
         October 28, 1995.  The swap agreement effectively changes the
         Company's interest rate exposure on a portion of its borrowings to a
         fixed interest rate of 9.938% plus a 0.75% spread on the notional
         portion of the facility.

         Interest paid for the three and nine months ended October 28, 1995 was
         $828,000 and $2,218,000, respectively.  Interest paid for the three and
         nine months ended October 29, 1994 was $614,000 and $1,887,000,
         respectively.

         Effective October 30, 1995, the Company executed a new bank credit
         agreement which provides for a $100,000,000, five-year revolving
         facility.  Borrowing costs under the facility (drawn and undrawn) have
         been reduced.  Beginning October 30, 1998, availability under the
         facility will be reduced by $6,250,000 on a semi-annual basis.  The
         existing bank term loan was rolled into the revolver which eliminated
         $8,000,000 of the current portion of long-term debt at October 28,
         1995.  The agreement increases the amount of credit available to the
         Company by approximately $40,000,000.

5.       BUSINESS ACQUISITION

         On January 31, 1995 the Company acquired certain assets of Custom
         Coating & Laminating Corporation ("CC&L").  The Company paid $24
         million ($18 million of which was borrowed under the Company's
         unsecured revolving facility), assumed certain liabilities
         approximating $2.4 million, and may pay up to an additional $4 million
         based upon product sales over the next three fiscal years.

         The results of operations of CC&L from February 1, 1995 have been
         included in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

         The following is an unaudited pro forma combined summary of results of
         operations of CC&L and the Company for the nine months ended October
         28, 1995 and October 29, 1994 assuming the acquisition had been
         consummated on January 29, 1994.

6.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         During June 1995, the Company contributed $541,000 to the Employee
         Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the plan year ended April 30, 1995.
         Of this amount $384,000 served to reduce loans previously made to the
         plan.  In addition, the Company advanced $438,000 to the ESOP which
         has been presented as unearned ESOP shares in the accompanying
         condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The ESOP used the funds to
         acquire 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock from a Director of
         the Company.

         Excluded from the Statement of Cash Flows are noncash transactions of
         $217,000 that relate to the issuance of restricted common stock.  The
         related unearned compensation is amortized over the shares' five year
         vesting period.

7.       INCOME TAXES

         During the third quarter, the Company's effective tax rate for the
         current year was revised from 35.0% to 28.5%.  The effect of the
         decrease in the tax provision was recorded in the third quarter,
         resulting in a 14.8% effective tax rate.  The decrease resulted from
         the realization of certain reserves and tax credits due to the
         completion of IRS audit cycles and closure of earlier fiscal years.

         The effective tax rate for the nine month period ended October 28,
         1995 was 28.5% as compared to 36.0% in the same period a year ago.
         This decrease was also due to the realization of certain reserves and
         tax credits, as well as lower state and foreign income taxes.

         Income taxes paid for the three and nine months ended October 28, 1995
         were $400,000 and $3,300,000, respectively.  Income taxes paid for the
         three and nine months ended October 29, 1994 were $2,200,000 and
         $6,700,000, respectively.

8.       CONTINGENCIES

         At October 28, 1995, the Company has approximately $1,933,000 of
         foreign currency hedge contracts outstanding which consist of over-
         the-counter forward contracts.  The contracts reflect the selective
         hedging of the Belgium Franc with varying maturities of up to six
         months.  Net unrealized losses from hedging activities were not
         material as of October 28, 1995.

         At October 28, 1995, the Company is obligated under irrevocable
         letters of credit totaling $3,219,000.

         The Company is currently involved in litigation arising in the normal
         course of business.  Management of the Company is of the opinion that
         such litigation will not have a material effect on the Company's
         consolidated financial position or results of operations.

         The Company from time to time incurs investigation, remedial response,
         voluntary clean-up and other costs associated with environmental
         matters.  As of October 28, 1995, the Company's reserves for
         environmental matters totaled approximately $2,100,000.  These
         reserves primarily relate to environmental costs associated with
         facilities that have been sold or closed.  While neither the timing
         nor the amount of the ultimate costs associated with environmental
         matters can be determined, management does not expect those matters to
         have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
         position or results of operations.

8.       CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

         One of the Company's subsidiaries has been notified by the
         Environmental Protection Agency that it has been named as a
         potentially responsible party in connection with the cleanup of
         hazardous wastes at two sites, the Solvents Recovery Service of New
         England site in Southington, Connecticut (notified in June 1992), and
         the Gallups Quarry site in Plainfield, Connecticut (notified in April
         1993).  Since these matters are in their preliminary stages, no
         assurance can be given at this time concerning the ultimate outcome.
         However, based on preliminary investigations to determine the
         subsidiary's potential liability and the estimated amount of remedial
         costs necessary to clean up the sites, the Company presently does not
         expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on its
         consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated sales for the three months and nine months ended October 28, 1995
of $85 million and $256 million, respectively, represented a 5% and 11%
increase, respectively, over the same periods of the prior year.  After
removing the effect of acquisitions and businesses held for sale, sales from
continuing operations for the three month period approximated the prior year,
and such sales for the nine month period increased 6% over the prior year
period.

Improvement was noted in a number of markets served, with sales into the
electronic manufacturing and semiconductor markets being particularly strong.
Sales also improved to the commercial aircraft, aerospace, and beverage
markets.  Additionally, heavy construction, material handling and hydraulic
hose markets have shown greater growth than last year.  Sales to certain
sectors of the transportation and medical industry were flat.  Sales into the
chemical and industrial processing markets were down substantially from last
year as the result of significant export sales included in last year's sales
that were not repeated in this year's third quarter or first nine months.
However, order activity was higher than in any other quarter this year for
chemical and industrial processing markets.  Third quarter sales of the
Company's European operations were up 3.3% (down 4.0% after removing the effect
of foreign currency exchange rate changes) over last year.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the third quarter and nine months
ended October 28, 1995 was down 4.0% and 2.4%, respectively, from the same 
periods of the prior year to 27.0% and 27.7%, respectively.  After removing 
the effects of acquisitions and businesses held for sale, the gross profit 
margin on continuing operations was down 3.4% and 1.9% for the three and 
nine month periods, respectively, to 28.1% and 28.8%.  Product mix and raw
material price increases impacted the Company in the third quarter compared to
the prior year.  Also affecting gross profit were higher cost incurred related
to the implementation of the Company's new operating structure.  While the
impact of selling price increases was evident in October, it was not sufficient
to offset the impact for the entire quarter.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were
22.2% and 22.4%, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended
October 28, 1995, respectively, down from 24.7% and 24.4% in the same periods a
year ago.  After removing the effect of acquisitions and businesses held for
sale, such expenses were 22.9% and 23.2% for the three and nine month periods,
respectively, down from 25.2% and 24.9%, respectively, in the prior year
periods.  The decline in selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of sales from last year is primarily the result of fewer costs
incurred related to the implementation of the Company's new operating
structure, and lower performance based incentive compensation and employee
benefit plans.  Partially offsetting the lower general and administrative
expenses were higher product development costs.

Other income, net for the three and nine month periods increased from the same
periods in the prior year primarily as a result of higher licensee fees earned
and a decrease in expenses attributable to the elimination of income related to
businesses held for sale which was higher in the prior year.  Offsetting these
increases was lower interest income resulting from a reduction in cash balances
available for investing due to an acquisition in the first quarter.

ITEM 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended October 28, 1995 was up
22.1% and 24.0%, respectively, from the same periods in the prior year.  The
increase is due to the acquisition of the assets of Custom Coating and
Laminating Corporation ("CC&L") acquired on January 31, 1995 for $24 million,
of which $18 million was borrowed.

Pretax results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended October
28, 1995 were down 12.9% and up 4.6%, respectively, compared to the same
periods last year.  After removing the effects of acquisitions, pretax results
of operations decreased 13.6% for the three month period and increased 3.2% for
the nine month period, compared to the same periods last year.  The decrease in
results for the quarter are due primarily to lower gross margins offset by
increased volume and lower operating expenses.  The  improvement in the nine
month period is generally the result of higher sales, continued productivity
improvements, lower operating expenses and higher other income.

During the third quarter, the Company's effective tax rate for the current year
was revised from 35.0% to 28.5%.  The effect of the decrease in the tax
provision was recorded in the third quarter, resulting in a 14.8% effective tax
rate.  The decrease resulted from the realization of certain reserves and tax
credits due to the completion of IRS audit cycles and closure of earlier fiscal
years.  The effective tax rate for the nine month period ended October 28, 1995
was 28.5% as compared to 36.0% in the same period a year ago.  This decrease
was also due to the realization of certain reserves and tax credits, as well as
lower state and foreign income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's financial condition remained strong at October 28, 1995.  The
Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.2:1, which was
unchanged from the beginning of the year.  Net working capital decreased $1.7
million during the third quarter to $55.0 million.  Cash provided by operations
for the three and nine months ended October 28, 1995 was $8.2 million and $16.9
million, respectively, compared to $1.5 million and $6.7 million, respectively,
provided in the same periods of the prior year.  Excluding the balances related
to CC&L, accounts receivable increased $3.1 million while inventory decreased
$1.6 million during the quarter.  During the nine months ended October 28,
1995, accounts receivable decreased $3.5 million while inventory increased $2.9
million during the period.  The Company's capital expenditures totaled $2.2
million for the quarter and $9.3 million for the nine month period, primarily
for renovating existing facilities, leasehold improvements, and replacement of
existing equipment in addition to implementation of the operating systems to
support the Company's new structure.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.8 million in the nine month period ended
October 28, 1995 due to cash used in the acquisition of CC&L and to fund
capital expenditures and working capital requirements.  Long-term debt
increased $11.0 million during the period as a result of funds borrowed to
complete the acquisition.  The Company's debt to equity ratio is currently
0.31:1, an increase from 0.23:1 at the beginning of the nine month period.

ITEM 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

Effective October 30, 1995, the Company executed a new bank credit agreement
which provides for a $100,000,000, five-year revolving facility.  Borrowing
costs under the facility (drawn and undrawn) have been reduced.  Beginning
October 30, 1998, availability under the facility will be reduced by $6,250,000
on a semi-annual basis.  The existing bank term loan was rolled into the
revolver which eliminated $8,000,000 of the current portion of long-term debt
at October 28, 1995.  The agreement increases the amount of credit available to
the Company by approximately $40,000,000.

The Company continues to believe that it generates sufficient cash flow from
its operations to finance near and long-term internal growth, capital
expenditures and the principal and interest payments on its long-term debt.
The Company will continue to evaluate its employment of capital resources
including asset management and other sources of financing.

The Company continually reviews possible acquisitions and should the Company
make a substantial acquisition, it could require either the utilization of the
remaining $68 million available on its new credit facility or financing from
other sources.

One of the Company's subsidiaries has been notified by the Environmental
Protection Agency that it has been named as a potentially responsible party in
connection with the cleanup of hazardous wastes at two sites, the Solvents
Recovery Service of New England site in Southington, Connecticut (notified in
June 1992), and the Gallups Quarry site in Plainfield, Connecticut (notified in
April 1993).  Since these matters are in their preliminary stages, no assurance
can be given at this time concerning the ultimate outcome.  However, based on
preliminary investigations to determine the subsidiary's potential liability
and the estimated amount of remedial costs necessary to clean up the sites, the
Company presently does not expect these matters to have a material adverse
effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
