Makes sense  but any comments on the insulating properties?

I use Fiber glass resin, but I have had a problen of my windings
breaking
loose in cold temp. so I now spray my coils with clear spray to stick
the
coil to the PVC before I coat the coil.  I guess that you could have the
same problem. The plastic dip may not bond well to PVC with no pre-coat.
