Anyone ever tried using this stuff for LN2 insulation?

I've been using liquid electrical tape. If you paint it on thick, it peels off perfectly.

I was expecting a slightly kinkier result
i7 2600k, 8GB 1866Mhz DDR3, GTX560 Ti, Gigabyte Z68XP-UD4, CM Cosmos 1000 Case, and some green crap everywhere.So you're saying I could use my own pee as coolant?
I was using Performix tape.... which I love but has more than doubled in price
I was sent some Star-Brite and I hate it. Don't like its consistency, don't like how fast I get through a bottle, don't like how it eats some of the stickers on GPUs
I bought a bottle of liquid latex. It was cheap and I have dead stuff here to try it on. What's the worst that can happen??

Did you have a chance to try it out? I've also been using Liquid Electrical Tape (mostly just on video cards)
You get a whole new type of hardware fetish?What's the worst that can happen??

Liquid Latex FINALLY arrived.
First off- it smells ****ing TERRIBLE.
Once I dig out a brush, i'll try it on a dead card this afternoon

Goes on white, dries clearish, unless it was applied mega thick.
4 hours later ,it's still tacky.
(i'm sure plenty folk on here have used liquid latex and know exactly how it behaves, but this is new for me

I use liquid latex for masking purposes in painting. Many different types, but all need to be applied in multiple thin layers to cure well. A heavy coat will just produce a thin top film with liquid below it. Make sure to avoid pockets of air as you apply the material. A hair dryer on low heat can be used to decrease the set time.Goes on white, dries clearish, unless it was applied mega thick.

Liquid nitrogen temperatures are not forgiving to many things including liquid latex. (as you already know) I fear for it getting too brittle and cracking during use.

Once the smell dissipates, it works pretty well as a contraceptive.
Signatures make my posts look huge... but I'm not humble enough to completely remove my signature, so I kept this note explaining it.

Make sure that under the cpu is sealed cos this stuff will creep in under then it is there forever. I let that happen and rig would not post.
I think you can get accelerators and fillers and dyes for this but I am not sure of their electrical qualities.
There may be a case for using fillers in the above scenario

Yea. While it is nice and easy to remove, it just doesn't "feel" right. I am not reassured
Contraceptive: no. I'm very unlikely to......hmmmmmm..... "stay interested" for 4 hours while it sets. Plus.... I don't think it'll expand safely when...... yea.
