Sintra is one brand name for closed-cell "foam" PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride).
It glues easily with PVC "pipe cement" for heavy applications - you can thin
the plumbing cement with MEK for easier application. Hot glue sticks to it
very well, ditto epoxy.

Sintra is one of the trade names for PVC. foamboard, it is also known as Foamex, Forex, Foamalite or Palite, but looking for 'PVC. foam board' will generally lead you to the right stuff :)
