[GreenKeys] Sorry stuff

Old 14, 15 and 19 machines as well as earlier 28's used a quilt type
material for sound deadening inside the cabinets. Sometime later, probably
in the late 50's or early 60's, Teletype started using a plastic foam for
the sound deadening material. I am sure that this probably saved them a lot
of money, but it is really sorry stuff when it starts to deteriorate from
the heat and also the petroleum environment that it operates in. I have a
machine that has this type of sound deadening material and I want to remove
all of it and replace it with something better. Are there any suggestions
out there? Thanks in advance.
