Super Light works for me, but I wouldn't call my hair very thick.
I also have the regular Murray's but prefer the light. Regular Murray's can be used the same way. If that doesn't work, the stronger version is liquid beeswax, or the straight beeswax. These things are cheap and they last forever. Just a tiny dollop is enough.
As for boar's hair brush I've got one a lot like this, including the nylon reinforcement.
Boar's hair brushes are too forgiving to straighten-out freshly toweled damp hair, so get it straight with the strong coarse brush, something like this, then finish with boar's hair.
For a rougher look I sometimes go back over some of it with the coarse brush after the boar's hair, puts fingerlike ruffles back in.
If I don't use the boar's hair to straighten, my hair has a tendency to form into strangs and curl back up. The boar's hair is just fantastic in making all the hairs touch each other equally and no separate, thus keeping them straight.
Don't even need to bother with a hair dryer, and iron-straightening is completely unnecessary (unless you have some seriously wiry hair).
Can you link to a good boar's brush? My hair is very thick and curly/wavy so I am assuming I would need this one: http://smile.amazon.com/Murrays-Light-Pomade-Dressing-Super/dp/B001RQIRVK?
Murray's, it's like a wax, so really rub it into your hands before scrubbing your head with it. Then you brush it, then you comb it. Too much in one spot is labor intensive in the hair dept.
I use a little bit of pomade before combing. It helps quite a bit.
