Quick question for everyone,

How susceptible is spray paint to HV problems.

I want to spray the back of a piece of acrylic (because it looks cool). But I am worried about the paint having issues with the HV terminals that are mounted threw the surface.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
John "Jay" Howson IV

I would say it strongly depends on the paint you use. Some paintscontain small amounts of metal and pigments that can be conductive.

The best way to find out I would say is run a test on a small scrappeace of materiel. Try a painted peace and a unpainted peace and see howvenerable it is to carbon tracing when HV is applied to it.
