Many years ago there was an aerosol RFI paint that worked really well and it was not that much, maybe $12-$14 a can. I used it on all kinds of plastic cased radios.

MG Chemicals Conductive Acrylic Paints also sells aerosol and liquid based RFI/EMI coatings using either Nickel, Silver or Copper for the conductive part.
Their similar RFI/EMI shielding chemicals are also very expensive.
"Super Shield Nickel Conductive Paint" is the name of one product they sell.

Why not? A disguised tinfoil hat goes for $49.00 on Amazon:

Gotta disguise it so friends don't think you are a complete moron.

(the review section is kind of a fun read….)

My dad used to tell me that for years! It was true.

I remember Bill Cheek was the first to my knowledge to use EMF shielding paint on scanner radios. He did a lot of customization of Radio Shack's (GRE) PRO-2004, PRO-2005, PRO-2006 and many others. He would spray the inside of the plastic enclosures with this type of paint and I think it actually helped. I don't recall all the details but it became popular among the more serious scanner enthusiast!

Shielding paint works incredibly well in the pickup cavities of electric guitars especially for single coil pickups. I shielded my Telecaster and Stratocaster and it completely eliminated hum and “scratches”. Of course, it doesn’t take that much paint to shield electric guitar components so the price is reasonable.

Time to make and sell tinfoil hardhats!

I still use copper tape on some gear that is plastic. Still, that pesky antenna is like a straw sucking in that RFI.

You Know.... I saw an ad recently for dehydrated water. Just add h2o and you have a full can of water ready to use.
I am in the wrong line of work.

I saw a sign in a convenient store for DIET WATER it was a Dollar more than regular water.

Speaking of... I saw copper tape on eBay that apparently can be used for guitars. So having said that, I suppose copper tape would also do wonders for inside RF shielding of scanners. I actually never thought of that until now. And I knew about RF shielding paint since circa 2008.

Haven’t tried copper tape on scanners, but I use it under guitar pickgards and the mounting screw holes to make contact with the shielding paint in the pickup cavities. Works wonders.
