MG Chemicals Red Insulating Varnish – 2oz Bottle (4228-55ML)

Easy, Reliable Protection for Electrical and High-Voltage Parts

MG Chemicals Red Insulating Varnish is a top choice for everyday users who need a simple solution for electrical insulation and protection. This high-quality red insulating varnish quickly forms a strong, glossy coating to protect motor windings, transformer coils, ballasts, and other electrical components from arcing, electrical discharge, moisture, and oxidation.

Designed for easy use, you can either brush or dip parts directly into the bottle—applicator brushes are included for hassle-free application. You can even apply multiple coats for extra reinforcement. This product is an excellent alternative to Glyptal 1201A and is manufactured by MG Chemicals, a trusted name for electrical coatings.

Versatile Uses: Motor Windings, Transformers & More

This electrical insulating coating is ideal for:

  • Motor windings
  • Small dry-type transformers
  • Ballasts and coils (perfect for HID lighting transformers, e.g. mercury vapor, metal halide, sodium ballasts)
  • Protecting metals from corrosion
  • General high-voltage insulation applications
Vetco's team has personally tested it to quiet a noisy, vintage mercury vapor ballast, successfully restoring silent operation and extending service life!
