At Lowes or HD. You can get it right from the manufacturer...

More expensive than where?


Yes, possibly. If you need a lot, it'll be more expensive there by

far. Thin aluminum and -as I recall - bubble wrap? Or maybe it was a
closed cell foam and aluminum?

Find it at Lowes and Home Depot.




Wouldn't the shipping costs eat up any price differential? The stuff is
lighter than light, but also bulkier than bulky. A roll such as I bought at
Menard's is a cylinder roughly 4 feet by 18 inches or so. UPS would charge
about $50 to ship a 48x18x18 package, weighing 5 pounds, by ground from my
Green Bay area to Los Angeles.
