But then my worry is heat. If I were to coat it in anything, I'd wrap it up and plasti-dip it, however I think it would overheat due to no airflow and the fan wouldn't be able to even do it's job. I will see what I come up with and maybe post some pics. Here's to hoping I don't kill the speedy!

Ahhh I just re-read your post. You mean coat everything except basically the fan? The fan looks like a perfect spot for water to get in to me....
