Might be HDU (high density urethane).

They say it comes in densities from 4 to 40 lb per cubic foot. It's aparently used in a lot of sandblasted dimensional signs.

Mike,
You should be able to get that from
GEPolymers (unless they quit carrying it since they closed some of their places) http://www.gepolymershapes.com
or maybe
Denco (I use Idaho but they are out of Denver)
or try a supplier on this list closer to you:
http://www.voltarc.com/Sign_Distributors.htm##Illinois
Also if you can't locate what it is called if you send me a small piece I'll take it to my three sign supply houses and see if they can tell me what it is (that is if I don't know what it is after I see it). It might be a really high density foam board from what your describing, use it a lot to make overhead hanging signs for a hospital. (I can email you a picture of it if you want to see what it looks like).

Hi!
Did you ever find an answer to your white board question from May of 06? It sounds perfect for a project I've been asked about.
