Ed:
My 900W coil uses a Plexiglas tube (6") and I used about 5-7 coats of
MiniWax Satin Poly. There was no crazing or other shortcoming. However, if I
had to do it over I would use Pour On. The poly yellows and
looks..well...yuchy to use the techy term. If you pay the big bucks for
clear acrylic you'd want the clarity to remain. But it did keep those
windings in place.

I plan to re-wind my small coil this weekend.  The form is acrylic.  Does 
anyone know if polyurethane (oil based) will attack acrylic?  I know some 
solvents will cause acrylic to crack, like thousands of small cracks 
(craze?).  Does anyone have an acrylic form with polyurethane on it?

Thanks,
