ImagOn
Adding multiple layers of ImagOn is easy - laminate through the press as you would for the first layer (plate facing the press bed, not the blankets, and against a smooth surface like stainless steel, plexi, a litho plate, etc.), trim the edges, pull off the top clear layer of Mylar, then just laminate it onto the next piece. So on and so forth. DON"T use lamination spray between the layers (although you might need to for the first layer against the plate surface, depending on humidity) as the ImagOn is happy enough to stick to itself. Also, don't forget to take off the top Mylar sheets between each layer of ImagOn.
