has any one used this or something similar? my leaping arches are already assembled and i was thinking of spraying them with something similar to this. i know to use corrosion x on my controllers, but i do not want to take my leaping arches apart to water proof with the bucket method.

thanks

I wondered the same about this stuff but I have no idea if it would work or what it costs.

I used this on my ss nodes You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
It worked on my panels last Halloween and Christmas. I sprayed it on the back of the nodes where the wires go in.

That looks easier to use than the clear plasti-dip.  Wonder if I can find it locally.

I would be REAL leery about  using anything unless it specifies  that it is ok for electrical connections  and won't conduct .
I  myself use CORROSION X and yes , it is meant for electrical connections specifically .

If you read the description they specified electrical wiring harnesses which would indicate non conductivity.  Corrosion X is a very different product and would be useless in attempting to seal up nodes.  Actually, it would probably prevent you from being able to seal them in the future
If at first you don't succeed,
