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:
