What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this foam board for its ease of cutting with basic tools like utility knives and cordless saws, producing clean precise cuts without debris. Most highlight its effective insulation performance, blocking heat and cold reliably in garages, attics, and trailers with high R-value. Reviewers appreciate its lightweight yet sturdy construction, versatility across diverse applications from model building to protective backing, and ability to conform to irregular surfaces without warping. A few note concerns about thickness for heavy outdoor use or availability, but these isolated issues do not diminish the strong overall satisfaction with core functionality and performance.

Great features

Would Recommend

I know this product is for home construction but I have used this product for every Vacation Bible School project we have at my church. It cuts like butter, allows me to build depth why hot gluing pieces together and paints wonderfully. Plus the children love what I can create! Who knew Lowe’s was an art store as well. LOL

Foam to Insulate Garage Doors

Would Recommend

I purchased the foam to cut into sections and fit it in my garage doors for insulation. It has a rating of R5. I was able to wedge it in there and not use any glue or tape. So far it seems to be cooling it a bit.
