Foamex as a backing board?

Post by bang »

Hi,

I've got an outsized frame to make.

The dimensions will be at least 1300mm x 900mm...

I've contacted a supplier to see if I can source a large correx polypropylene sheet, however I have some foamex pvc board from a previous job.

Besides the weight disadvantage, is there any reason anyone might be aware of that I shouldn't use the foamex? I can't think of any... 🤔
