Does anyone know a good source for getting some of that dark grey high-density case foam? I've searched and searched for some time now, but I can't find a good supplier unless I want a lot of it. I am trying to line 1 case to fit my effects board into it.

Try a craft or fabric store. Be sure to get the closed cell foam!

Would a Home Depot or Lowes have something like that? Also, they have the Insulating foam sealant in a can. Maybe you could use poly bags ,spray some in and quickly "form" it
to fit. I've got a can in front of me called "Great Stuff" made by Dow

I'm thinking home depot and air conditioner foam. Also, they use this foam for gun cases, so check some gun stores or gun websites. Also, some people pack with the high density foam, so maybe a packer?

You probably won't get the gray stuff, but the fabric store should have it in white. They used to use that in camera cases, but the market may have died for lack of enough people carrying camera equipment around.

Go to pelikan cases for less and order replacement " pluck and pull " foam. You can get it in various sizes and it is already perforated so you can easily customize the nooks and crannies you wish to create.
God bless and merry Christmas,

I beleive that is an open cell polyether foam.
Iffy mentioned a closed cell foam which would be simular to what they use in SKB or Gator HSC's.

I actually have a good bunch of it. Probably enough to line a case.

That pretty much looks like the same stuff I have. Mine was used to pack fiber optic equipment, so it would probably work just as well with pedals. It's yours if you want it - 2 sheets, each about 16" x 24" x 2" thick.
