I am with Ken Hough in suggesting black yarn. Try it and if
its not satisfactory its easily removed. Unfortunately, a lot of
foam that worked well at the time rotted into goo. I don't know a
really effective solvent for removing it or else good solvents
will attack other parts of the camera.

But then someone was separating and reselling his kits in eBay making a good profit and that pissed him off.

Well, that was a great tip and I was able to contact him. Unfortunately,
he does not sell the material, only finished kits. This doesn't help me much
for the odd and old cameras I fix that are not on his standard kit list.
I understand his reasoning - he doesn't want anyone to go into competitive
business with him, I guess.
I just would LOVE to know what material he uses for compression-only seals.
The rest of the seals on any camera are reasonably easy to install with
self-adhesive foam. But those film door dust channels are real pain.
