A mate of mine in the states uses Rat Wax for patina/matt finishes, not sure if you can get it in UK.

If your going the Carnauba route, R222 is meant to be pretty good - have seen the results on a Merc on another forum I go on:

Or, if your feeling really flush/mad etc you can go for some of this (yes, if really is that price!!!!):

Yep, it really is that expensive Rob! Swissvax products are the Bugatti of detailing goods & mainly used by companies who detail Ferrari's etc. I'll try to find a link to the kind of work these chaps do on these cars.

76% wax by volume, 24% snake oil? Sounds like the £1000 usb cables of the hifi world to this sceptic.
