Anyone know about Palmer cushions?

I purchased an older gandy big g with drop pockets. After removing cloth I found it has these "Palmer Goldtek," cushions. Used the Google machine and searched here and could find ANYTHING. They are soft but was considering putting some tawainese cushions (MBS or similar). Since there is no info out there on these cushions, I'd assume they aren't spectacular. Wanted to verify before proceeding.

That logo was used on some of the KaoKao Taiwanese Palmers. That cushion is most likely from there too. I wouldn't even think of using old rubber if re-doing a table. New ones aren't that much.

Yeah that's what I decided to do. It's an older gandy so was a little worried about opening any more cans of worms by taking rubber off. Luckily just had to Bondo a couple corners where facings were properly installed at some point. Also didn't want to end up taking off $200 higher end rubber, even if old, with $80 tawainese rubber. The rubber was still bouncy and didn't crack when I got it off and folded it. Just surprised there's literally zero info on those cushions.
