Some folks on here are fond of soft foam like old cushions... I gotta question: How do I paint it in a way that the surface is completely sealed off without it contracting and distorting the foam? Every kind of thick paint or coating I've ever used contracts and shrinks that side of the foam piece. I know the general procedure is to use thin paint for that reason but I want to completely seal over the foam texture to give it a solid surface.
The department I work in throws out lots of chunks of flexible packing foam (open and closed cell) that would be great to shape and texture as building stones but after painting the "business" side of them it'd be nice if they stayed flat on the stick-on side.
