What kind of paper can I use?

Hi I am looking for two kinds of paper for two different projects

Context, I have an Epson 8550 inkwell printer

  1. I'm looking for thin, glossy, magazine paper - anyone know the closest I can get?

    I know I can't get the exact paper but can anyone get me close? As thin as I can get the better

  2. Anyone know what kind of paper or even lamination is used for these kinds of book covers?

The paper is kind of matte but not quite, maybe silky? I'm not sure and i've never seen books with these kinds of covers until a few years ago. I think it is laminated maybe but I havent tried that in bookbinding yet so I'm not sure.

Two other questions just in case

I'm looking for as close to thin bible paper as possible

Also if someone could maybe point me to where I can clean to do flexi bound books i'd be grateful
