    Custom Shop Box Interior Foam

    Howdy all. I have a Custom Shop box that was badly stained from oil oozing off of a Single Action Army. I went out on the town tonight with the wife/baby and stopped at 2 Fabric/Craft stores (Joann Fabric and Michaels) but only found the Yellow foam. Anyone have a online source for buying something that is close to the original?

    I also learned a very valuable lesson tonight. Never take a woman into craft store thinking you are spending money on yourself. You would be dead wrong.

    Thanks for any input.

    At one time, Colt would send you a replacement, but I suspect that has changed. Here is my other previous suggestion: Colt blue box foam pieces. I believe the secret to minimizing problems is closed cell foam. HTH
