In Response To: Dipping electrodes (Mal)

If your just blocking out the electrodes then raid your kitchen or the local dollar store and get some small tupperware containers. If you need to dip the whole unit then get a larger bin with a cover or bend one out of metal and seal the edges, use window foam insulation on the top so it stays wet . I would use waterbase block out paint, dries fast, gloss finish and doesnt smell.
Check with Lighting Lux (electrobits) for the paint.
