Back in the day we used sandwiches of foam with thin sheet lead in the middle as a combination acoustic insulation, mechanical vibration damping, and electrical shielding.

Thin copper plating and conductive paints have replaced it for shielding, but I would love to have some to play around with, and to make myself a set of "leads" like I used to use when doing fluoroscopy in the lab.

And, of course, I could go really "old school" and use lead instead of Bondo...
