We're talking 24kv+, I don't think paper is gonna cut it. You need something thick with high dielectric strength like phenolic, nylon, plastic, ect. FWIW, once you fix the obviously high horizontal current situation I doubt you'll have the issue crop up again. It happened because the insulating wax melted away, allowing the HV to find the path of least resistance.
