I have.  They work pretty well, within a certain context. I agree with you that rubber rollers would be required for what you're trying to do.

I've been looking into Ninjaflex.  it looks like a good solution for a lot of different problems. I'm supposed to have some samples coming from the people that make it. I'll let you know how it all unfolds.

Some examples:
