Where are you ? I have quite a bit I could spare some ...or you can usually get a 12ft by 4ft sheet for under $100.00 ...i paid 75.00 a sheet last time I bought it.

It's like roll flooring, it could be bent around a large radius curve if you had to.

I don't remember the exact price, but I paid approximately $250 for a sheet that was 6x8, the two part epoxy mastic was included in that price. You can also use contact cement for some applications.
