Sounds like styrofoam, if it is, definitely DO NOT use polyester resin. Epoxy is your best bet on that stuff.
check out some of these threads for more info.
lots of “Home Depot” blanks in the archives.

According to the Dow site, the material is polyisocyanurate, and according to Wikipedia, that is an improvement on polyurethane tech, but chemically similar. So PE resin may be OK, but it would definitely warrant a test before laminating a shaped Tuff-R blank.
