I am looking for the best paint recommended for protecting machined rotor surfaces of electric motors used in the aircraft wing area. The roto is made of Electrical steel M-19, coated with C-5 coat, and machined (for airgap). This machined steel core can be exposed to condensation during high altitude flights immediately after being subjected to high temperature environments - perfect conditions for corrosion! What are the best materials (paint) out there recommended for this application?
