FAQs

What is the exact size of each A5 foam sheet?

Each A5 foam sheet measures approximately 210 x 148mm.

How thick are these foam sheets?

The foam sheets have a thickness of 2mm.

Can children use these foam sheets safely?

Yes, the foam sheets are lightweight and easy to cut with adult supervision. However, sharp tools like craft knives should only be handled by adults.

What types of glue work best with this foam?

Most standard craft glues like PVA, Tacky Glue, and hot glue (used carefully) work well. Specialized foam adhesives can also be used.

Can I paint on these foam sheets?

Yes, acrylic paints and permanent markers are suitable. It's recommended to test on a small piece first to ensure good adhesion and color payoff.

How many foam sheets are included in a pack?

Each pack contains 10 A5 brown colored EVA foam sheets.

Are these foam sheets waterproof?

EVA foam is generally water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to water may affect the material.

Troubleshooting

Foam sheets are difficult to cut cleanly.

Ensure you are using a sharp craft knife or scissors. For intricate cuts, a cutting mat can provide a stable surface. For thicker cuts, multiple passes may be needed.

Glue is not adhering well to the foam.

Try a different type of craft glue, such as a strong PVA or a specialized foam adhesive. Hot glue can also work, but apply it sparingly to avoid melting the foam.

Foam sheets arrived bent or creased.

Lay the sheets flat under a heavy book or other flat object for several hours to help them regain their shape. Store them flat to prevent future bending.

Paint or markers are bleeding or not adhering well.

Lightly sand the surface of the foam before painting for better adhesion. Use acrylic paints or permanent markers. Test your medium on a scrap piece first to check for desired results.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These foam sheets require no setup; they are ready to use straight from the pack. Simply cut to your desired shape using scissors or a craft knife.

Compatibility: The foam sheets are compatible with most standard craft glues, including PVA glue, hot glue (use with caution to avoid melting), and spray adhesives. They can also be painted with acrylic paints or markers, though testing on a small piece first is recommended for colorfastness and absorption. They can be layered with paper, cardstock, felt, and other craft materials.

Care: Store the foam sheets flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping or discoloration. Keep them away from sharp objects to avoid accidental cuts. Clean any dust or debris with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
