In the marine industry, we used the paint on electrical tape. You can ev=

multiple layers if you think it has the potential for impact or extreme =

and it peels off easier than anything else I have ever used.

What I did, Roland, this time, beside turning the vent holes away from the =
terminals - coated the terminals and inside of the clamps with KoprKote, pu=

the anit-corrosion washers on the terminals, then coat over top the clamps, =
terminals and bolts with Scotchkote, a liquid rubber coating. We'll see how =
that goes.
