Since Galan doesn't get magnetized by Magneto, i'm curious which non-metallic material his suit of armor is made out of?
Acryllic? Cardboard? Papier mache?

Galactus (and presumably this incarnation of Galan) is a cosmic entity. We only see him as our minds can perceive him. It has been established that every being in the universe sees Galactus as a being roughly similar to what they are familiar with, with appropriate armor to match. But nothing we see is necessarily "really there" in that sense.
Since his armor was one of the very first things Galactus/Galan created upon entering the new cosmos, it is most likely made of the same stuff Galan himself is made of: cosmic energy.
Just as a general note, there are things that are non-metallic that are extremely strong and even used as armor (such as kevlar, a polymer). The interesting thing with magneto is that (typically) his powers seem to fluctuate between controlling "magnetism", metals in general, being able to induce an electromagnetic field to control non-metallic or non-ferrous metals, force fields, nuclear field manipulation, etc. It is also likely (as pointed out by DNA) that Galan's armor was created by himself to help him regulate the crazy amounts of energy that supposedly exist within him. It's safe to say that with "limitless power" Galan wasn't like "Hmm, I better use iron, or better yet, a titanium-gold alloy."
