Looking to build fuselage modifications on my home built. Planning to use Pour foam, and possibly pink or blue foam from Lowes/Homedepot as pre cut ribs to help with shaping.

What is the best type of Pour to use, and where would you source it? I know a lot of people use X-30 from aircraft spruce, or TAP. I am okay with that, but I am curious if there might be a store bought option in California. (Maybe a marine shop, etc?). Keep in mind, I’m as of now, not planning on leaving it in the plane. Purely to form and pull a mold off of.

Thanks!
