Experimemnting with new finish. I want to apply glaze/latex mix then pull off with saranwrap. What ratio of gaze to paint should I use?

I'm guessing that you're trying to imitate a crackle finish in one step (great idea if it works). I would try 25-75 and 50-50 (the second number being paint). You might try different pull off times also (very wet, tacky, almost dry).
