Do you bother to “pot” or bond when you wind inductors, either by brushing between layers or “dip and drip”? I used to brush, but my Glyptal stash is long gone, I see it’s $40 a quart now, and I don’t believe I’ve used more than a pint or two in 40 years. So that’s not happening. Maybe a urethane varnish? I’m realizing that I don’t even know what they use to “enamel” enameled wire any more, or if there’d be a compatibility problem . . .
