FAQs about Foam Boards & Mount Boards

Usually a sheet made with a foam layer enclosed by two paper surfaces, they provide just the right amount of structure without being too stiff, making a canvas that's ready to be cut, bent, and shaped into creations.

A mount board provides a clean and complementary backdrop to enhance the finished product of your artwork. Typically made from materials like heavy paper, cardboard, or foam board, they can showcase the details in your art, allowing precise control over design elements.

Versatile:
From mounting photographs to building intricate models, they’re a go-to for a variety of crafts and professional needs.

Lightweight:
A foam board is easy to handle, whether in a classroom setting or professional exhibition.

Adaptable:
A wide range of sizes, thicknesses, and materials, means they can be tailored to your specific artistic requirements.

Professional finish:
Their smooth surface provides a perfect canvas for showcasing artwork's details, adding a polished touch.

Yes, you can, but be careful. Some of the solvents in spray paint may harm the inside polystyrene in a foam board, and therefore, should only be used on the paper surface. They’re generally more susceptible to moisture, and spray paint has less moisture than many other paints. It also dries faster than oil paints applied with a brush.

Take a sharp utility knife or a pair of strong scissors and gently score the line where you want to cut. Apply steady pressure along the scored line, and guide the blade carefully through the material. Whether you're making a straight or curved cut, take your time to ensure a clean and precise finish.

You’d be surprised! They can be pretty strong and hold up quite a bit of weight if distributed evenly. Of course, it depends on the type of mount board at use, the size of it and sometimes brand. However, they can generally take on all your business presentations, school projects and craft needs.
