There are plenty of these sort of magnets on eBay. The eyebolts unscrew so perhaps you could screw in a mounting bolt instead.
I bought a pair of 50mm diameter eyebolt magnets to hold my dinghy to the side of my boat to use it as a platform for painting the cabin sides. To get the magnets off I had to lever them with a socket set extension bar through the eye! There's no way you could pull them off with your hand. I would suggest smaller units. If you're using 4 of them maybe 30mm dia maximum.
You don't really need plastic encapsulated magnets. They are in stainless housings so just put a piece of rubber sheet underneath to protect the paint. The only problem is that any water that does get underneath will eventually lift the paint whatever you use.
Thank you so much I have some on order now really appreciate your help?
