Agreed.  I was primarily talking about coating the inside of the secondary.
Perhaps on very high powered coils (or very humid areas) this might be good
practice, but for everyday, run of the mill
regular coils its not necessary.

Coating on the outside over the windings is always good practice - nice
protection and neat.
