Need rubber pads for base to repair Sideshow Statue

I've been dying to find the half inch rubber pads for a base of a statue.
Been looking for the same ones, not the home depot/target variety that has the checker board pattern on the bottom.
Anyone have any idea where to find them? As in the actual factory type?

Cant get them out of china, i tried.

They are called Eva pads, i had to find a china factory online and order a few sheets with circles cut for my projects. Had to buy a lot so it gets expensive. But mine are super small.

Best bet is ones at home depot that are semi felt pads.

Thanks, I'll look in to it. It's for a couple of expensive pieces rather stay faithful to factory for a piece like that , Esp if I decide to resell
Thanks again

Sorry no the ones i got left are for my projects, but if you wanted to you can PM me and i can put you in contact with the factory i found in china and they can get you them.

You can measure out the size of the circle you want and then order sheets of the pads with the specific sizes cut. But you have to order in bulk and can be upwards of $300 for just like 500 circles. And have to wire it thru a bank since they didn't take Paypal, but they do lots of statues for companies so i got the pads in a decent time frame.
