I'd suggest Dolph's Black Insulating Varnish (1800V/mil) or Spray-On Red 
Insulating Varnish #601 (2100V/mil). Both provide a durable, semi-gloss 
finish to protect your windings as well as provide some corona 
and zap protection.

EIS sells it. Let me know where your are located and I'll give you the 
number. Be aware that there are minimums. I had to buy three cases!
