Searched the forum but did not find any info what to use as replacement pad pums to repair brakes on my JVC VCR player.

I have two players from 1998, HR-S7500EH - HR-S9500EH which are European models.
They still work but will break down eventually?

Don't know what to use as self adhesive felt for brakes?
Ebay has plenty of sellers selling all kinds of cr@p

Would this be a good substitute felt or something else?
What do you recommend?

There must be suitable self adhesive felt sold by online shops specialized in electronic parts?

I would imagine that every model has a little different felt... thickness, texture, etc.

Might be easier to find a universal solution for felt?
Don't know where to look for specific material just for JVC players?

I was rather pleased with myself for using o-rings on an RCA CLR200 camcorder clutch ass'y:
