Waiting for the free trash bag sample to show up from the vendor. I have no doubt that there are any number of bags out there that are similiar and/or better than those I've mentioned. I'll take a look at what shows up and if they look to be adequate, I'll take a flyer and order a case.
Speaking of bags, has anyone experimented/test driven anti-static bags in place of the more common Ziploc type?
The ones I'm familiar with are a 3 ply mylar bag with a zip type fastener along one edge, pretty much the same as a standard Ziploc bag. The big difference is the materials used. The anti-static bag is virtually untearable compared to the plastic Ziploc bag. They are incredibly tough, very hard to puncture. They are priced higher than a Ziploc but I've got some that I've used many times over for 4"x5" film holders and they're still in great shape. I haven't tested them for watertightness specifically.
