Some professional installers use this as the final coating on a coax
connector joint over the final wrap of tape. It's better than ScotchKote since
ScotchKote is meant for buried applications and does dry up and blow away when
used in normal tower/cable applications.
I'd be careful with the spray acrylic around some antenna insulators. I
had a customer spray his new KT34XA with a coating of Krylon acrylic and the
danged stuff melted and cracked the Lexan element insulators.
