I have used "Galvafroid" on steel. It is a paint that uses a high content of colloidal zinc particles in the paint. It works best as a seal when the parts are assembled while the paint is still tacky. Any other form of high metal content paint should also work well.
I have also used "Copper Slip" grease with high content of copper particles in the grease. This works well for sealing shafts in the door handles of some screened room doors. The information is a little old - there may be better solutions around today.

Paxman From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Ernest Rayman Sent: 17 December 2009 14:06 To: emc-p...@ieee.org Subject: Conductive Paint *** WARNING *** This message has originated outside your organisation, either from an external partner or the Global Internet. Keep this in mind if you answer this message. We had en enclosure built and the sheet metal people powder coated every metal to metal contact surface. We have had a couple of systems misbehave in the field and it is an immunity issue. We have scraped all the powder coating off the metal to metal mating surfaces but we do not like the bare metal because it will eventually start to rust. I have looked into a couple of conductive paints that we can use but the lead engineer has expressed a distrust and dislike of conductive paints. I am looking for suggestions about what conductive paint you have used with success and if there are other options for rust control this late in the game. Thank you for all your help and Happy Holidays to everybody, Ernest Rayman _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/177141665/direct/01/ - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
