Polarizers for glare removal

[5knightsproductions]

I'm shooting a new short film in a few weeks, mostly all shot on green screen and need some help with a question. I did a test shoot with the costumes yesterday and the bad thing is that the costumes are mostly made of plastic bags and garbage bags (dont ask lol)

The glare from the lighting on the bags just looks bad. So I was wondering if a polarizer is the best option? Or if there is a better (and maybe cheaper way) of reducing glare on plastic material? \

Thanks for the help!

Diffusing the light more might help, but yes, polarizer probably the best option.

There's stuff called "Dulling spray" as well for reducing the reflectivity of surfaces... but polarizers will help.

My LA vet DP is always referring to "streaks and tips" which was a tempoary hair color apparently widely used in the old days to cut glare on objects, dim down a lightbulb, etc... similar concept I imagine.
