The K3 kit has two sub assemblies that come in large conducting plastic

work bench overlapping to provide a good conducting surface. If you want you
can cut open two sides of each bag and fold open the bag to double the
covered surface.

I don't understand how that material is supposed to function, but I tested a piece of it (may have been from some other source) and found that it was not conductive, at least as far as my DVM could measure. I concluded that I could not trust it to drain off any static charge from a workpiece - wrong?
