Does anyone have a good place to buy the

Mouser carries it in big 3'x3' (or thereabouts) sheets.
It's not cheap. (anywhere)
I think Digikey also carries it.
As does Techni-Tool:

As Dave says, it's not cheap. I don't particularly care for the stuff,
as when it degrades, it leaves IC leads a mess.
I wonder if a large-scale solution might be plain old urethane foam with
a coat of EZ-Slide paint?
Or just use some foil-faced PIR insulating foam, perhaps.
