High resolution spatial scans through the planetary nebula BD +30°3639 have been made with the UCL cooled grating spectrometer at the IRTF. A spectral resolution of λ/Δλ = 50 was sufficient to resolve the unidentified dust features at 8.6 and 11.3 μm and separate them from the continuum emission. The scans were made in .7 arcsec steps across the nebula with a 1.8 arcsec diameter beam.
