Can I get a new pad for a B&D SR410E sander?

The padded surface for my old but perfectly good reconditioned sander dropped off some time ago and no amount of glue will fix it back due to the vibrating. Can you get replacement pads or can anyone suggest some way of fixing it back more permanently? Thanks

That was so quick! Thanks for the answer. I just hope the pad is up to it...

try cleaning the gluing surface of the pad with an agressive solvent before glueing.the idea is to clean and partially dissolve the surface.this makes the glue bond more succesfull.I use a thinner for cleaning spray guns,leave it on till the surface becomes soft before applying glue.and for glue i use gorrila glue and clamp well.
