    I have 2 CF-29's that need a touchpad replacement. I'm looking for someone to do this for me. One "jumps" around when using the touchpad, the other has been worn out. I tried to replace one a while back, and I never got it working right.

    If anyone here does this, let me know how much you would charge for parts + labor. I'll just ship them to you and send a return label with it to take care of shipping. Thanks!

    Touchpad, not touchscreen...correct??

    Here is an idea I had. I have never tried it. I did use some of this on sticking seat belts. Actually I wrapped the opening the belt rides on. This stuff has a very slippery surface. I ended up with 50ft x 2" roll. I needed 6" x 2"..

    3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5481, high temperature, heavy duty PTFE film tape with silicone adhesive.
    3M™ PTFE Film Tape 5481, heavy duty, skived film tape, conformable, chemical resistance, and self-lubricating properties. used for wrapping rollers in manufacturing processes to help minimize buildup and cleanup of sticky materials or inks on rollers, plates, and belts. You also will find these tapes ideal for sealing or masking to protect contoured surfaces from harmful chemicals and wear.
