Seeking some advice from more knowledgeable people here, i may have to rebuild a tripler for the thorn 2k, the problem is sealing it up afterwards, back in the day this was a jelly like substance that could be easily scraped out if further work was needed, does anyone know of a suitable product that can withstand kigh voltages yet can be easily undone like the original material, all i know for certain is acetyl cured silicone is not suitable, there is a product called silcoset but the cost is horrific for one small job.
