I've always used "KAMERALACK Schwartz matt" from Tetenal, the
photographic chemicals people. 

I bought my flask (it's made of aluminium and holds 0.1 litre) years
ago, but I have seen it for sale at infrequent intervals in camera shops
that supply darkroom supplies.

I suspect it's not _quite_ as good as the flocking paint, but it's
pretty good.

You might like to contact Colin Clay by snail mail (he's
internet-challenged). He's made vast improvements to a number of F40s.

Best Wishes
