 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 ---------------------

 NET SALES

 Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 were 1.3% lower than the second
 quarter of fiscal 1995.  Sales of laminates and composites were 2.6% lower and
 coil coating 7.8% lower than last year's second quarter, while metallizing and
 coating sales and electrogalvanizing sales were 10.7% and 7.2% higher than last
 year, respectively.  For the first six months of fiscal 1996, sales were 0.7%
 higher than the same time period last year.  Sales of laminates and composites
 and electrogalvanizing grew 1.9% and 11.7%, while metallizing and coating sales
 and coil coating sales were down 4.5% and 3.6%, respectively.



                                      -8-
<PAGE>
  
LAMINATES AND COMPOSITES

 Laminates and composites sales during the second quarter of fiscal 1996 were
 2.6% lower than during the same quarter of fiscal 1995.  This decline in large
 part resulted from lower Polycore Composites(R) shipments to Mexico due to a
 67% year-to-date sales decline in the Mexican market for Chrysler, the
 Company's major customer in this country.  This shortfall in sales was
 partially offset by higher Polycore Composites shipments into non-automotive
 markets in the U.S. as well as higher sales for disc brake noise damper
 material and Specular+(R).  For the six month period ended August 31, 1995,
 laminates and composites sales were 1.9% higher than the same period last
 fiscal year primarily due to increases in non-automotive Polycore Composites
 offset, in part, by shortfalls in automotive Polycore Composites and brake
 damper material.

 METALLIZING AND COATING

 Sales of metallizing and coating products increased 10.7% in the second quarter
 of fiscal 1996 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1995.  This increase
 was due primarily to solar control window film sales, which rebounded from a
 weather-related, depressed first quarter.  On a year-to-date basis, sales in
 this product group were 4.5% lower than in the year earlier period.  Although
 this product group regained some of its momentum in the second quarter, it
 continued to be affected by the replacement late last fiscal year of MSC's west
 coast solar control window film distributor, and the slow start of the selling
 season due to poor weather.

 On September 7, 1995, MSC acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of
 Solar-Gard International, Inc. ("SGI").  Headquartered in Largo, Florida, SGI
 was the largest independent distributor of professional grade solar control and
 safety film products in the world.  It was also MSC's largest distributor, with
 a relationship going back to 1980.  SGI has eight wholly-owned distribution
 centers across the United States, one center each in Canada and England, and a
 joint venture operation in Singapore.  It currently distributes products in
 over fifty countries.  The acquisition should help MSC better execute its
 international window film marketing program and improve overall efficiency.

 COIL COATING

 Coil coating sales during the quarter ended August 31, 1995 were 7.8% lower
 than the previous year's second quarter.  The sales decline reflected the
 lingering effect of customer inventory adjustments affecting the Company's
 Middletown, Ohio operation due to customers hedging inventories in anticipation
 of last year's fourth quarter 52-day shutdown, along with a general softness in
 most of MSC's other products in this group such as building products, fuel
 tanks, swimming pools, and lighting.  Partially offsetting this general
 softness was a significant increase in the sales of clutch plate materials
 which were sold as a "package".  Package sales include both coating and metal
 components.  For the six month period ended August 31, 1995 sales were down
 3.6% from the same period last fiscal year due to the previously mentioned
 customer inventory hedging and sales declines in automotive trim offset, in
 part, by increased sales of clutch plate and truck trailer material.

 ELECTROGALVANIZING

 MSC participates in the electrogalvanizing market through Walbridge Coatings
 (the "Partnership"), a partnership among subsidiaries of MSC, Bethlehem Steel
 Corporation ("Bethlehem") and Inland Steel Industries, Inc. ("Inland").  MSC's

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
            
 net sales for electrogalvanizing consist of various fees charged to the
 Partnership for operating the facility.  Bethlehem and Inland are primarily
 responsible for the sales and marketing activities of the Partnership.  The
 Company's primary financial benefits from the Partnership are the revenues
 billed to Walbridge Coatings for operating the facility.  These revenues
 represent 23.1% and 20.8% of the Company's net sales in the first six months of
 fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The profitability for operating the
 facility is comparable to the Company's overall operating results.  Under the
 equity method of accounting, the Company includes its portion of the
 Partnership net income (loss) in Equity in Results of Partnership shown in the
 Consolidated Statements of Income.  The amounts do not directly correlate to
 the Company's 50% ownership interest due to contractual allocation requirements
 of the Partnership agreement.

 MSC's electrogalvanizing sales increased 7.2%, while electrogalvanizing volume
 decreased 3.6% to 105,459 tons in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from
 109,372 tons in the prior fiscal year period.  Lower volume was the result of
 taking the electrogalvanizing facility's annual maintenance shutdown in the
 second quarter versus the third quarter in the previous fiscal year.
 Additionally, the normal five day shutdown was extended to eleven days as our
 automotive customers lengthened their model changeover schedules.  Although
 volume was down in the second quarter, sales were up due to a higher value-
 added product mix and improved pricing.  For the first six months of fiscal
 1996 sales were up 11.7% and volume was up 1.1% to 226,082 tons from 223,560
 tons for the same period in fiscal 1995.  The increase in sales over the
 previous fiscal year resulted from a strong demand for new autos and trucks, a
 continuing shift to higher value-added electrogalvanized and coil coated
 materials, and price increases.  MSC increased the capacity of the facility by
 approximately 5% in the third quarter of fiscal 1995 which allowed the Company
 to take advantage of increased demand during the first half of this fiscal
 year.

 The sales and marketing responsibilities of the Partnership are split between
 Bethlehem and Inland at 75% and 25%, respectively.  During the first six months
 of fiscal 1996, Inland utilized only 13% of available production line time
 rather than its full 25%.  Bethlehem and other customers utilized this
 additional available line time.  Inland is reviewing its future involvement in
 the Partnership, and therefore, there is no assurance that Inland will utilize
 its full 25% of available line time on a long-term basis.  The Company believes
 that any short-term disruption in volume that might be caused by a reduction in
 Inland's line time requirements could eventually be replaced by additional
 volume from Bethlehem and other customers.

 GROSS PROFIT

 MSC's gross profit margin was 26.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 versus
 26.2% in the previous year.  For the first six months of fiscal 1996, MSC's
 gross profit margin was 27.0% compared to 25.9% last year.  The improvement in
 year-to-date gross profit margin was due to higher value-added product mix,
 improved manufacturing efficiencies and continuing productivity gains resulting
 from capital expenditures.  During the second quarter the Company reached
 agreement with its insurers regarding a casualty and business interruption loss
 incurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995.  MSC recognized approximately
 $.7 million in operating income during the second quarter for this matter.

 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
     
 Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to 15.5% of sales
 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 from 14.5% of sales in the same period
 last fiscal year.  For the first six months of fiscal 1996, SG&A

<PAGE>
 
 expenses increased to 15.2% of sales from 14.8% of sales for the same period
 in the prior fiscal year.  The year-to-date increase in SG&A over the prior
 fiscal year six month period is due to increased expenditures for strategic
 purposes such as high-growth product marketing, research and development, and
 international marketing efforts.  These same strategic expenditures along with
 a lower sales volume explain the increase in second quarter SG&A expenses as a
 percentage of sales over the prior year's second quarter.

 TOTAL OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET AND INCOME TAXES

 Total other (income) expense, net was income of $.1 million and $.5 million
 during the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 1996 versus income of
 $.3 million and $.6 million, respectively in fiscal 1995.  MSC's effective
 income tax rate was approximately 38.5% during the first six months of fiscal
 1996 versus 38.0% in the first six months of the prior fiscal year.

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 -------------------------------

 During the second quarter of fiscal 1996, MSC's operating activities generated
 $9.3 million of cash versus $6.0 million of cash during the second quarter last
 year.  For the first six months of fiscal 1996, operating activities generated
 $5.6 million of cash versus $5.0 million last year.  The increase in cash
 generation is due mainly to increases in net income and non-cash expenses over
 the prior fiscal year periods net of timing issues in certain working capital
 accounts.

 MSC's capital expenditures during the second quarter and first six months of
 fiscal 1996 were $6.1 million and $10.9 million versus $6.8 million and $9.7
 million, respectively last fiscal year.  The cash flow from investment in
 partnership, net of distributions, was comparable in the second quarter and
 first six months of fiscal 1996 to the same periods of the prior fiscal year.
 During the first six months of fiscal 1996 MSC's long-term debt, less current
 portion increased by $.4 million to $7.3 million due to borrowings on MSC's
 unsecured line of credit offset, in part, by normally scheduled debt
 amortization.  The Company maintains a $25 million unsecured line of credit
 which expires August 31, 1998.  There was $1.2 million outstanding under this
 line of credit at August 31, 1995 versus no balance outstanding at
 February 28, 1995.  The Company has executed letters of credit totalling $4.9
 million against this line leaving an available line of credit of $18.9 million
 at August 31, 1995.  The Company believes that its cash flow from
 operations,together with available financing (including an increase in the line
 of credit if required), and cash on hand will be sufficient to fund its working
 capital needs, capital expenditure program, and debt amortization.
 On September 7, 1995, MSC issued subordinated convertible notes along with a
 small amount of cash to purchase all of the outstanding capital stock of Solar-
 Gard International for approximately $8.6 million in total.  The notes mature
 ratably over a five year period and are convertible into MSC stock at a premium
 from current market price.  The issuance of these notes does not affect
 availability of funds under MSC's unsecured line of credit.

 The Company has a capital lease obligation, which was $7.7 million as of
 August 31, 1995, relating to a facility which the Company subleases to the
 Partnership.  In addition, throughout the term of the Partnership, the Company
 is contingently responsible for 50% of the Partnership's financing
 requirements, including the Company's share (approximately $4.3 million) of
 $8.5 million in Partnership financing loans from third parties at
 August 31, 1995.

MSC continues to participate in the implementation of settlements with the
government for clean-up of various Superfund sites.  For additional information,
refer to MSC'S Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1995.
