Many decades ago, before high-voltage diodes were available, I constructed  
4 KV, 50 ma klystron power supplies using strings of 600-volt PIV, 
metal-case  diodes mounted on commercial Bakelite terminal boards.  After soldering, 
I  sprayed the entire board heavily with Krylon high-voltage spray intended 
 for television receivers.  These supplies operated for many decades 
without  any problems.
