Work Great for Schedules
I use these to make schedules and then put them on my fridge. Very nice that you print right on the paper that is already attached to a magnet so no dealing with sticky tape, all you have to do is create and print.

Fills the need
The magnetic sheets are being used to show sentence structure, learn days of the week and recognize characters with elementary students learning Chinese. They provide versatility and an effective means of teaching students to read Chinese, especially in K-1.

Save the Dates
These magnets worked out fantastic for our wedding Save the Dates. We designed our magnets and printed them on our Canon printer. Great quality and good magnetic strength.

Format makes invention elusive
Invent It! tends to take an idea already in the marketplace and put a slightly more "home hobby" twist to it. What Invent It! does here is change the standard configuration of the sheets. Other manufacturers include three, letter-sized sheets with no scoring of any kind. Invent It! gives you one full sheet, one sheet with precut rectangles, and one sheet with precut circles.
While I admit that some hobbyists may like the convenience of pre-scored sheets, I personally found it annoyingly limiting to be forced into these shapes. I can't, therefore, see more than a novelty use for this pack. It would make sense if Invent It! created a pack of each kind of sheet, because that would give consumers the opportunity to buy sheets for particular projects. This way, however, you have to spend a prohibitive amount of money to get enough sheets to make even a modest run of, say, magnetic business cards.
As for their general quality, Invent It! gives us slightly less powerful magnetics, and a material that is irrevocably stained by water. They are best on kitchen doors, or other areas of highly concentrated, magnetically conducive metal. For example, they hardly stick at all to stainless steel, and they also seem to have their functionality compromised by refrigerated or moist areas. Indeed moisture does seem to discolor the base color of the sheets, permanently changing that color from white to a very dull pearl. Fortunately, the material is such that the design itself will not bleed when wet, as is the case when inkjets print on paper.
I must point out that none of the three manufacturers I tested performed much better under what might be considered "extreme" conditions. None stuck to stainless to any great degree, and all discolored under moisture--though others did so less permanently. Invent It! did actually lose some magnetivity when exposed to water after adherence, actually curling slightly under the strain. Other manufacturers, notably Xerox, seemed to have slightly improved magnetics overall, sticking better to more types of metallic surfaces. None seemed eager to be used on already-moist surfaces, but Xerox in particular seemed to withstand moisture better if, for instance, condensation appeared after sticking the magnet to the surface.
In sum, then, I think Invent It! would be perfectly fine for making exterior refrigerator or interior car magnets, but this particular collection of shapes will be limiting to most creative minds. Businesses looking to use this product for routine labeling of work areas will be best advised to look for other manufacturers, or even to consider transparent decals.

INVENT IT MAGNET KIT
I BOUGHT THIS OVER THE WEEKEND COULD NOT WAIT TO TRY IT. I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT I USED IT TO MAKE MAGNETS (OF COURSE), BUT I ALSO MADE MAGNETIC PAPER DOLLS FOR MY NIECE. THE ONLY THING IS BE SURE IT DRIES BEFORE YOU TOUCH IT. BUY IT TODAY YOU WON'T BE DIAPPOINTED.

Does not stick well to my car doors
I am sure that if all you wanted to do was print medium quality pictures to put them on your refrigerator these sheet could work well. However, I tried to use them for number panels on the doors of my car. The magnetic material is too thin to adhere well and the corners soon curled and lift and or fell off. Also the seem temperature sensitive in that when it was cold outside they didn't seem to stick at all. The semi-glossy surface is a bit more rough than I would like for photo quality printing.

Magnetic paper?
Nov 11, 2007 by Claudia G | Posted in Printers
Has anyone used magnetic printer paper? I saw it advertised for printing magnetic business cards at home but I wondered if it's actually effective as a magnet? Would it hold a letter to a fridge for instance?
I printed a poster onto this type of media and it stuck to the fridge fine. business card size should hold paper to the fridge but it might depend on the weight of the paper you wish it to hold because it is thinner than normal magnets so that it will go through the printer

I need to print a 20 mil heavy magnetic sheet. What printer should I use?
Sep 11, 2007 by nAndn | Posted in Printers
I've tried a HP all-in-one, and an Epson Stylus C88 but the sheet is too heavy and it jams up the printers. Calls for recommendations to the printer companies have not been too helpful either. Also, I can't use a laser printer. Does anyone know of a good inkjet printer that will successfully print really, really, heavy material? BTW 20 mil is equivalent to 5 pieces of standard paper stacked together (I think, though I stand to be corrected). Thanks!
nothing consumer level.
you have to get a large format printer

Why would the magnetic strip on a credit card scan; if wrapped in plastic wrap, when it originally wouldn't.
Aug 16, 2007 by G T | Posted in Other - Computers
I work at a hotel, and our room charge/key cards often don't scan on the first couple of tries. If we wrap them in plastic wrap, or thermal paper from the receipt printer; most of the time they will then scan successfully. We are scanning them when a guest is making a purchase at a computer/register. We hardly ever have this problem with regular credit cards, just the hotel's cards. Just wondering what is the science involved. Thanks
the strip on the card has been worn out most of the times.... but they are easy to get dmaged and even the material that u keep them in could distort the strip like a certain type of wallet ot purse that u keep them in and soiime studies have also said that keepin them next to a cell phone for a period of time can keep it from working properly. the plastic bag is like temporarily wiping a really bad scratched CD.. the bag becomes a protectant aand at the same time then enough for the cards magnetic strip to be read though it
