No! I used Coroplast...it is like plastic cardboard. I got mine from a sign shop. You can call a local sign shop in your area to check on pricing and whether or not they would cut them into the sizes you need. Please see the beginning of this post, allow all pictures to come up before you read it.
I hope this helps.

You'll need to research that. Several other members are using other methods as shared here on the board :-D

Have fun!
