Anyone have issues with infusing magnets into parts?

I  have a project I am working on and it needs several small magnets infused into it. The part is rather thin and will only be one layer of 5.7 oz or 160 or so grams and final layer of 14 oz or 400 or so grams. These will be all infused and wondering if the magnet will cause any problems with the resin or will I have a nice print through of the magnet on the front side? I'm gonna do some testing but seeing if anyone has experience with it first.

I would suspect if you slow the infusion down a bit, you will give more time for the resin to soak through and all should be fine. However you never know until you try it.
