Today I obtained a small chunk of the "pink" insualtion foam available from Home Depot in 4'x8' sheets 2" thick. It was marked poly styrene foam. When smeared with a generous amount of vinyl ester resin, it was clearly "attacked" and began to dissolve.
So I guess that type of foam is out as a souce of flotation when used with vinyl ester. I don't want to go to epoxy, as I have nearly a full gallon of the vinyl I would like to use up before it starts to self gel.
Any suggestions from the gallery?
