Durability Test: Styroplast hard EPS foam coating

Styroplast is a hard foam coating from Hot Wire Foam Factory. Today we're gonna put it to the test and see just how tough it is.
In this video, we compare a single, double, and triple layer of styroplast (with and without a medium mesh) over blue insulation foam. We'll stomp it, smash it with hammers, and even run it over with a forklift.

I was literally going to go out to the shop and do a test like this myself. Thanks for saving me the effort. Seemed like very thorough testing and I appreciate it a bunch!

I was seriously lmao when you ran over them with the forklift.

Can it be sanded once cured?

[@driverjamescopeland]

If you want the harder surface of fiberglass or epoxy, all you need to do is paint over the foam with acrylic primer.

[@jakereedy9683]

wallpaper glue and aluminum foil for more of a guarantee

Is this what they use in those playground sculptures in the mall and children’s hospital?

[@zmokahbiar]

is it sandable and can i apply it with a paint gun?

[@richardwynh]

hi great video but what is this Mesh you are talking about. Can you link it please. Your video doesn't show the part where you put the mesh. Thanks

In my lab
coat the foam with SP... and immediately apply mesh, more sp, mesh, more sp, .mesh sp . let cure
Analyze results.

Lame and amateurish.
There are better tests with a different approach.
"gonna" ? How professional.
