I to use the white foam. I'm always able to find it free in varying shapes and sizes. The white foam is definetaly more fragile to work with than the pink or blue foam. The trick with the white stuff is to use sharp cutting tools or a styrofoam heat cutter and a wood burning tool with a dimmer switch attached to control the amount of heat when etching in words. It can also be sanded but use caution and go slow when doing so. Always make sure to hand paint your stone with latex paint to seal all the nooks and crannies.
Here are some on my stones that I've done in the white foam. This may help in your decision to use the white foam.
