I think it will be ok unless you put some insane voltage (40-50kv) on it. I may be wrong but since the voltage is spread out between several turns no single spot is gonna see more than several kv (except maybe the outer turns since they have more L than the inner).

Hi All,
I was thinking about using the bronze ribbon on my primary, but started reading about significant corona from the sharp edge. Does anyone have any thoughts/comments on this?
