GA Tan To my knowledge this coating was developed for space programmes because it features low or no out-gassing. The material is quite tricky to handle and apply correctly and, again if my memory is not deserting me, it is 2 component. This means that it is really undesirable for dipping because you will throw away far more than you will use. If you send me a copy of the data sheet, I can probably give more advice.
