John,
I live in the Netherlands, Europe, so no much use for you to give
you details on my supplier. It’s a company that makes plastic,
acrilic and perspex objects such as trade show and shop displays.
The foamed PVC sheets (a brandname used in the UK is ‘Palight’) are
used also in the printing industry because they are very suitable to
print billboards on. I suppose there must be suppliers for this in
the US too.
Good luck,
Michel

to re-use the plywood and vinyl? The foam
backing is probably crumbled away or going to be soon. If you
glue the
vinyl to plywood without foam backing, it will be very hard to
get a
smooth surface. I threw everything out and replaced plywood and
vinyl
with sheets of 4 mm foamed PVC. Does not rot, bends like plywood,
not
expensive, soft matte finish. If you want to keep the
plywood/vinyl
situation anyway, I would use a sprayable contact glue suitable
for
foam. Upholsterers (cars and furniture) use it.Good luck,
