You guys are probably right. I just assumed that the coatings were originally chosen more for their HV insulating or harmonic dampening properties rather than a moisture barrier. I've read that if the flyback donut becomes loose on the core, that you can get some nasty ringing in the horizontal. Wax would be very good at dampening out mechanical vibrations at the horizontal frequency, as would any soft pliable material.
