CF65 EVA craft foam

CF65 is a professional premium Craft Foam product. Firmer, denser & more durable than standard Craft Foam, CF65 gives a balance between hardness and flexibility. 

Suitable for making props and armour.

This is the foam Alchemy Forge FX use on their Shield Making workshops.

• Information sheet available: A guide to EVA foam (1.7Mb PDF)

Use contact adhesive (UHU will work if applied to both surfaces then allowed to go tacky). PVA will not work. Super glues (cyanoacrylates) work well for small pieces – adding details, for instance. A hot glue gun can be used – with care (and not advised for 2mm). The heat of the glue will affect the thermos-formable material.
