Arthur,
Yes - we used some 8.5 X 11 magnetic stock (from Staples?) and ran through
our ink jet printer (not sure if it was "approved" for lasers, as they get
much hotter). But we used it for refrigerator pictures.
It was very thin and I would suspect it to be "less magnetic" than thicker
stock. We also did not test its waterproofness.

I could have saved you 4 nights of production time and writing
a disclaimer, Jim. Magnetic sheet cuts cleanly with standard
scissors! I've been tempted to try the paper cutter at work
next time that I need a straight line (like for SCCA decals),
but I haven't had the need to do it yet.
Stupid question of the week. Has anybody ever seen vinyl decal
(bumper sticker?) stock in 8.5" X 11" that could be printed on
by a laser printer (or inkjet)??? I've got this nice, shiny
color laser in my office.....
