Use high voltage insulating spray from McMaster-Carr.  It's in a 
spray can and only costs $3.65 per can!!   3-5 light coats on coil 
after winding.  2-3 light coats on sanded coilform before 
winding.  Be sure to sand and spray inside of coilform as 
well.  Also, use 1/4 inch acrylic interior bafffles approx 3-4 inches 
up inside of interior of coilform.
