Regarding the coils.
Melt off as much of the sealing wax as possible, then keep them "warm" for a while at say a low, low oven temp; no more than say 150 deg. to bake the moisture out (and maybe some leftover wax).
Then spray coat the windings with clear lacquer to seal them (INSIDE the coil forms too!!) so there is a moisture barrier for your high-humidity area.
