I have seen iridescent oil paint - never used it because I think the better way to show, eg, the lit edges of clouds is to work out how to do it with regular paint; and incidentally, iridescent effects are unlikely to show to any effect if the work is photographed.
But - if you can find some, have a play with it: always willing to try something new, though it does help if some unfortunate guinea-pig has done it before I lay out the cash....
