Are these foam sheets suitable for outdoor use?

How should I store the foam sheets?

Troubleshooting
Adhesive not sticking well
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Press firmly onto the applied area for at least 30 seconds. For difficult surfaces, consider using a craft glue in addition to the adhesive backing.
Foam tears or rips when cutting
Use sharp scissors or a craft knife for clean cuts. If using a die-cutting machine, ensure the correct settings are used for foam material. Avoid pulling or stretching the foam while cutting.
Color seems faded
Store sheets away from direct sunlight. If color loss has occurred, consider decorating the sheet with markers, paints, or glitter to restore vibrancy.
Foam is difficult to shape
While flexible, extreme bending may be difficult. For curves, score lightly on the non-adhesive side before bending. Some heat (e.g., from a hairdryer on low setting, held at a distance) can increase flexibility, but test on a scrap piece first.
