Does anyone know where I could get a small sample piece of 2lb EPS? I want to see it, check the color, put a surform to it, sand it, etc., before I order a blank. I understand the same type of foam is available at Home Depot, but I don’t know what to look for. Any suggestions? I’m in San Diego. Thanks!
Home Depot will only have #1 in stock. It will probably be Insulfoam.
You might have to drive but the Insulfoam plant in Chino will have scraps. We just ordered a block of #2 to make our own blanks.
Or pro foam in vista is closer. More expensive as they are a retail outlet. They may have scraps or samples.
all this is in the archives, btw.
