I have an old 11" coiltek DD pro coil which got so noisy it was useless so I pulled it apart and resoldered the lead to the windings after discarding about 2" of the lead.
What I'd like to know is where can I get some carbon based paint in Australia and what would be the best glue to use to reseal the two halves of the coil.

Electronic shops sell graphite or Nickle shielding spray packs. The best glue is dissolved filings of an old skid plate in acetone.(very thick paste)
