 Hi all
 Has anybody thought of filling a poly and foil cap with petroleum
 jelly not oil.
 
 Comments?
 
 Cheers Mike Tucknott
 *********************************************************************
The idea of the oil is that it seeps in between the layers and displaces any 
air. That reduces / eliminates coronal arcing from the edges of the metal 
foil. I don't think P.J. will permeate between the poly and the foil that 
well, even if heated to a liquid when inserted into the container. Plus, a 
considerable amount of damage can be caused by an internal arc before the 
jelly can melt down to kind of self repair. I'll stick to what I know works.
