Seriously I am so mad. The scientific name for this is polyurethane rubber. it is easy to get in the Philippines because this is usually the by product of crude oil or recycle tires. which is probably hella cheap to get in the Philippines. Here in the United States. It cost so much!!!!

I know what you mean, my chest armor for Batman is made out of foam craft sheets called "foamies" coated with a rubberized spray paint called plasti-dip. I'm curious if the foam you use is similar. The foamies I find come in 2mm rolls and are very flexible and can be molded with heat. But I have to back mine with vinyl otherwise when it gets hot the foam tends to rip. Do you have to use any kind of backing on yours?
hello dark knight i am captain america. LOL (our avatars). yes, we're working on teh mk VI. will try to post updates/pics/vid clips if possible teh soonest possible time. :angel
the rubbers? it's available in many colors but we normally use black especially for dark colored costumes. all our costumes are painted unless it can pass off without paint like the captain america shield I am holding in my avatar. That isn't painted.
sometimes, a good paint job really adds up to the character of teh costume you are making. people normallythink that my partner's ironman costume is some kind of plastic or fiberglass but it's actually just rubber with a very expensive paint job. LOL.
we believe that one should really spend if they want outcomes to come out well. right? think quality.

So by "rubber" we ARE talking Foamies then? Or any similar EVA type foam?

No, I think it should be like the rubber that goes in sheets and you can lay them on the ground and stuff like that. It's not foam, it's just regular RUBBER. Like the one used for...ehm....for....for.....ok...I don't know...just rubber

Well I found a great website with all types of foam rubber in the USA, so hopefully one of these will work out.

Good link! and from the pic she showed I am still thinking this is some type of minicel or EVA foam, which is technically a foam rubber and maybe that is what they call it! Still speculating, but those flip flops are sold everywhere and that is what the soles are, similar to interlocking floor mats
