Like this: [http://uscomposites.com/foam.html](http://uscomposites.com/foam.html) West Marine says they have 1 quart for $99.99 Lol. wtf. That’s 5 times what USC charges… Commonly used in art, casting and marine applications. ---

I am curious what you are using it for. Does your shipping dept. use it? Edit: Rigid? Never mind the shipping question. I had foam insulation sprayed in my house. It wasn’t rigid but they do offer rigid. Is this for a car? ---

I looked into buying it online and the “kit” was about $500-$600 dollars. When I had my house sprayed, a big part of the cost was set-up because it is actually heated blah blah blah. It’s a long shot but maybe you could arrange to have your car on site when they spray the rigid kind at a construction site. ---
