A friend of mine is looking for a box of cleaning disks for 8" floppy drive for one
of their customers and they're willing to PAY for one. If anyone has one for sale let
me know.

Cleaning DISKS?!?
For 8"?
Yeah, they probably did once EXIST, but why?
Cleaning disks were handy for tiny hard to get at drives. But 8" drives
are wide open.
Q-Tip and everclear.

Not all of them. (I'm speaking from experience!)

That's what I suggested but they WANT cleaning disks! This is for a company
(probably with the typical LUSER) and not for a knowledgable hobbyist.

I do have some for my TRS80 m.2 and possibly my Shugart, but I'm hanging
on to them like a leech.
What about fabricating some with 8" jackets. After all they're simply slightly
abrasive absorbent paper in an 8" envelope. No ?
On the other hand, after reading the other replies, possibly I could spare
ONE for suitable goods or renumeration. The TRS 8" Heath, and Shugart
ARE easy to get at the head(s).
If interested contact me. They are NOT in hermetically sealed packages.

Even that can be a tad difficult on some of the half-highs, e.g.
Mitsubishi, etc. No argument on full-highs.
