A guy I know recently painted a wood, bolt rifles stock w Rustoleum Stone Accents ( I believe ) spraypaint in a tan, speckled black,white etc. natural looking color. He used 3 coats and It looks very nice like a factory desert camo synthetic stock now, the finish is tough and rough/bumpy and sticks in your hands nicely. I would like to try to apply it to the new black plastic Sureshot stock I got but I do'nt think the paint is compatible ( plastic not listed as a material to paint ) w this water based paint? sorry I have no pics of it. Anyone else done this to their gunstock?
(http://i683.photobucket.com/albums/vv192/mad815/001-4_zps00fd2183.jpg)Try cleaning your plastic stock with some of the stumpwater that Popcorn made. Then buy the Rustoleum spray paint made for plastic. Use this as a base primer--- The Stone Accents then should stick to the primer base coat .( I'm Guessing) -- Then seal it with the spray clear sealer. I've done 3 stocks this last winter that way but I used just the textured spray paint. -- The photo is of my Remington 7600 .35 W. --- It's not done yet but it's getting there---- I call this design " Blood Trail Green" ---- Good luck Web
neat idea

I like both of your creations alot and am thinking of spraypainting my entire NEF pardner12ga that currently wears camo tape and wrap shown in my " My turkeytakers " post. I really like the stretchy, ace bandage type camo wrap, great grip and quiet moving or bumping brush while stalking. I have it covering my nickel finish CVA Optimas barrel too, but it must be removed if you get caught in the rain and it gets soaked or corrosion is a given. I was afraid to painting these guns for fear of devaluing them if I want to sell them, but I'm gonna go ahead and paint them anyway and I'm pretty sure I won't be selling them either.
I put a new survivor stock on my NEF for this years Turkey season that starts May 1 st. -- I'm going to spray paint it when I set my mind on what I want it to look like. Guns do not have to be Cammoed to shoot game , but I will personalize this one also. If you ever want to sell the one you painted , I'm sure you can remove the paint very easy--- If you sell it ---someday you will wish that you had kept it -- PS. I'm thinking of putting loose cooked spaghetti on the stock and spraying it different shades of green and maybe brown in different spots-- letting it dry then removing the spaghetti. -- I'll let ya know how it comes out--- Web
The CVA muzzleloader has the silver/nickel finish too shiny for me, but it does shoot great. I thought I might sell it a while back because I bought the .45 cal one and was'nt quite satisified w it's prefomance on deer w Powerbelts and was thinking of selling/getting a .50 cal. Then I found some 295grn bullets and they helped alot so It's now a keeper, the stock/forearm are factory camo but kinda clashes w the silver barrel and frame. I looked into powdercoating the barrel but it's a little pricey for me so I'm gonna rattlecan it good!!
My 870 magnum I did a DIY camo job on before waterfowl season.
