Decal Printing & Magnet holding

Accidentally found out that you can print directly on a silicon baking mat and it removes very easily which might be a good use case for printing decals.

Worth mentioning that putting some flat metal sheet under the mat makes it really easy to use magnets to position and hold pieces and it works very well. I used some lumbar ties from Home Depot and the mat right over and can position small magnets however I want and the cleanup is easy since the UV ink wont stick to the mat.

Overall I am not sure this is any better than printing and using the sticker laminator but for those that don't want to spring for the laminator and associated A1 sticker mats this might be an ok way to go. Only problem is the amount of curling is pretty bad. This might improve with heat or extra UV cure but have not tried that. Could also use transfer paper or masking tape to keep the curling under control.
