I have used these for enclosures in the past. They seem to work OK (no
complaints with moisture build up)

can 'breath' but not pass water.
This is an interesting idea. Can Gore-Tex be found in small
squares for this type of application, or would one be stuck

What's a good thing to coat my built boards with, to protect them from
the environment? I've got a temperature/humidity sensor outdoors on a
small pcb, but I just got done cleaning some corrosion off it. Epoxy?
Spray paint?

If you smell it, you'll notice a vinegary smell when its curing. That is
acetic acid being evolved, and that's probably not great

It's all in the details. :)
The humidity probe would obviously need to be exposed--- so you
Depending on the particulars of the enclosure and installation, the
temperature probe need not be exposed, nor the rest of the board.
It's outside. I *want* air movement around it, to get accurate
measurements. If it's fully enclosed I need to worry about it
becoming a small solar oven.
