Any foam that is 5 mm thick and has paper on either side with foam in the middle is what is normally used.
I get my foam from an art store, you can get it really beg and cheap there.

Boxy, what part of the world do you live in? If you're in the US then you should have access to Dollar Tree, which is the cheapest/best way to readily get foam. Otherwise it's 3/16" or roughly 5mm. If you can't find foam with paper attached you can lay packing tape (colored or clear) down in lieu of paper.
