What about that liquid electrical insulator that is used in places
where electrical tape would be inconvenient? Looks like there
is a brand called Liquid tape. I know this is rated for much higher
voltage than you probably need. Does it stick well to copper? I
don't know. Call the manufacturer at 800-969-5432.
