Thanks for the info. I'm not up to speed on the nuances of mat properties, but I
was worried over the heat, and the fact that these are the only boards
displaying this problem. Will continue to investigate.
Thanks. Ernie

Erine,
It was probably a Silicon rubber mat (typically reddish in color) which can
withstand high temperatures and not Silicone. Silicon rubber typically
should not pose a problem and the UR peeling is probably from a different
source.
