Then I noticed that at the end, above where the line goes
in, it was arcing between the windings.
How does it do that?
The voltage from one winding to the next is pretty small.
don't worry about carbon tracks, if you ppur this stuff

over the part that's arcing, the carbon will be encapsulated.
Give it 2-3 days to completely dry and get hard.
It if still arcs, throw it in the trash.
