Back in the early 90s I used Nickel Shield Conductive Paint that came in a spray can. It worked good on coils that I made and repaired, as well as the crude PI that I made before commercial PI detectors hit the gold fields.

Yeah MG super shield. Nasty stuff though, had Toluene in it. Smelt like Juicy Fruit chewing gum if I recall..... Worked really well on coils like you said. Still not as highly reflective as Copper apparently?

This little guy was about 6" down in an old drywash pile directly under a triple high power line. 14 DD after the audio fix. Very quiet using Bluetooth headphones.

I know the feeling, these were certainly found in a place the 14" DD was beneficial.  I just wish there was a smaller DD.  No headphones for me, this was speaker!
