Clayton, As a custom picture framer who is also a photographer I can tell you that I've tried or investigated just about every foamboard out there and the one that I've settled on is Artcare Archival Foamboard by Nielsen Bainbridge. Try this link if you'd like to read a little about it from their site: http://www.nielsen- bainbridge.com/Bainbridge/NB-Foamboard.html , it's the most rigid foamboard with the whitest surface I've come across (that's also archival, there's lots that are stiffer and whiter but not archival). Hope this helps and doesn't just muddy the waters. Oh, one last thing, unfortunately it is also the most expensive one I've found. Hasn't stopped me from using it though.
