Works fine. You end up with a tough, rollable map.
The clear adhesive shelving paper is great. It's not as reflective as the glossy laminate so it works better under lights. It's easy to work with and inexpensive. I made my own map for use with Triplanetary and wet erase markers. It works a treat.

Thanks for the idea!
