Screw that. There is always Amazon.
I now have a can of spray varnish. Once I find the heat shrinkable tubing, I'll splice that broken start winding connection.
With this spray varnish, what do I want to paint? The entire winding or just the places that are discolored?
How did I get myself into this. I gave that motor up for dead two or three years ago. I drag it out every now and then for educational purposes. I never expected it to run again and it may not. When I assemble it, the armature seems awfully tight. It rotates but with more force than I would have thought. Bad bearings (bushings) maybe.
I do hope it is not all in vain!!!!
Do not be concerned about overspray. Spraying all the exposed wires cannot hurt.
Runs on the other hand could cause it to get where is does no good. IIWM, I would position those two funky slots at the bottom and saturate the slots. Let dry and repeat several times. Getting varnish on the interior of the stator will likely cause no harm until it interferes with the rotor.
The bushings are likely 'almost self aligning'. Gentle tapping on the shaft sideways around the shaft may help them align.

Now tell me, have you actually done this or are you speaking based on a gut feeling.
To spray the wires that I am actually concerned about will definitely result in spray on the motor segments.
