The veggie bags I found at Kroger a few years ago were .0035 g/si and worked well on a couple of gliders I built. One of them is still in my closet.

  Thanks all for the anecdotal evidence against Saran Wrap--I won't
  even try it now. (Working on a newcomer event that is supposed to
  stay a newcomer event by excluding those who have won anything
  before.)

  Enter veggie bags!? At my favorite cheap grocery store, the only
  veggie bags I found, (free on those tear-off rolls) were very sturdy
  (bigger than I remember) and were way too heavy.

  I know, I know, go to another grocery store. I will. But.

  But, I wonder if this is a bellweather of impending change? Remember
  how grocery push carts used to be a reasonable handy size? Yet some
  marketing genius figured out that a volkswagon-sized push cart made
  people fill it up higher and buy more. It's possible that these
  bigger, stronger veggie bags may be doing the same thing. As I said,
  this was a cheap Baggit-Yo-Seff store.

  Anyhow, the ones I found were 3.95 gram at about 11.5" x 19" flat.
  That works out to 3X what Bruce says a light veggie bag weighs per
  sq. in.

  I have to find something that everyone in US has easy access to.
