So glad I found this thread, going through this process myself at the moment. I used the project foam from Joann but I just thought of another Idea. First I thought neoprene foam, but it’s expensive and hard to get in the size we need. Then I thought of yoga mat and started cutting up one we have lol and I think it’s gonna work out pretty well. I think it’s pvc foam. I did soak it in water and it does retain water, but so does most foam. What are your thoughts?

EDIT - neoprene or EPDM foam is the way to go, it’s waterproof, closed cell and very resilient.
