bore finish [bare wood] ??

Hello everyone,
I wanted to ask if anyone here know what material is applied to the bore right after making it.
I searched a lot online and especially here, and found only discussions on how to preserve an existing clarinet bore.
I've recently started to produce barrels and bells for clarinet [for fun, not commercially], and I want to know how to treat the bare wood, mainly the bore.

And one more question. about the exterior, I read here and on the site of chsash that carnauba wax [100%] is excellent for the wood, so I debated between car wax and natural wax. Then when I realized that I do not know they put in the paste even though it is 100%. So i got some carnaube flakes.
The problem is that I can not figure out exactly how to work with it, what solvent to use to soften it, and did I understand it right and wax is the only thing I aplly to the wood?
[this link is the closest instructions I've found for what I need, but they do not write down which solvent to use- http://www.ehow.com/how_7623316_use-carnauba-wax-bare-wood.html ]

Thank you, Gilad
