I'm pretty shure from a palm tree.

I actually got some from a auto shop and it wasn't cheap. It was close to $20 for a can. It is used to wax high end cars!

Somebody told me the red stuff they pour over the lid of a bottle of "Makers Mark" is carnuba. If ever there was a reason to buy good bourbon, that is it. :drinks:

You can buy it on ebay in the flaked type, but if you Google a search you can find it even cheaper.

I forgot where I bought mine. Anhydrous lanolin is a good one to have also. Mix some with rubbing alchohol and you have Midway case prep lube which I like a lot.

I squirt a few pump sprays in a zip lock baggy, then drop in my brass and shake for a few seconds till it migrates about 1/16" in the case mouth. Perfect lube.

I bought some carnauba from these people. It was in the form of flakes. $8.00 per lb. They ship USPS priority mail, came to a little over $12.00.

I got mine off of some cheese, the red waxy cover on some type of cheese is carnuba.
