Gary,
I believe Gatorfoam Board is intended for outdoor use and denser foam with a wood fiber veneer laminate impregnated with resin for water resistance. Foamboard is polystyrene foam core coated with a paper stock.
I purchase foamboard in bulk from Blick Studio. Up to 40" x 60" inch sheets in white. 48" x 96" in black. They also offer Gatorfoam. They usally have offers for free shipping on smaller sizes and also look for the discount coupons.

Is all 1/2" thick foam core board created equal or is there some reason Gator Board is superior? I have a specific project that requires a sheet of 1/2" thick foam core board a minimum of 24" X 36". All I can find locally, so far is 20" X 30". Any suggestions (besides gluing two pieces together)?
