'Spongy black foam trays'

Hi everbody!

I've realized I have troubles with adjectives. For example, I'm translating this:

Polystyrene foam is generally not recyclable. This includes the spongy black foam trays that meat is often packaged in at supermarkets.

I translated it as bandejas de espuma negra esponjosa gulp

It sounds really funny, I know what that sentence is talking about, I can't find a good translation now, but that's not the point. When I have many adjectives, I get lost!

Is there a rule which I can sort them correctly without thinking considering all the possibilities?

Hola, ale_rd!! Your English is great. Just a few things. **Polystyrene**, **adjectives**, **sentence**, ...get **lost**, **which** - SonrisaDelSol, Oct 4, 2011
And here, **considering** is more natural sounding than **thinking** :) - SonrisaDelSol, Oct 4, 2011
