One good way to shield a plastic box is with conductive paint. One source
of this is:

GC-Thorensen catalog # 10-4807
1801 Morgan St
POB 1209
Rockford IL 61102-1209
815-968-9661

I have one caution -- make sure the surface is clean and that the paint
will stick well! If the paint flakes off, the conductive flakes will
wreak much havoc in the circuit they are trying to shield!
