For all you guys painting these rifles..... Do you take all the blueing off first or just paint right over?

Pretty proud of this stock I did with Krylon tan and webbing spray, the finish turned out pretty solid!

I was going to post a picture but realized i have no clue how.....

I de-grease everything.. keep it assembled and cover EVERYWHERE I don't want paint.. I'll usually hang it to paint on 1 or 2 wires or strings.
Usually one last good wipe down with an Iso Propyl Alcohol soaked micro cloth right before I paint. I don't sand or remove bluing in case I want to one day remove the paint. It holds up pretty well as long as it gets 1 or 2 satin clear coats. I expect scratches and chips.

Couldn't agree more, prep is everything. Completely degrease, then again until your 100% sure it's good. Then once more for grandma and it should hold up provided a clear coat or three.

Thanks, I got a 740 Remington that's got a synthetic stock put on but the blueing sucks. She's gonna get a good spray.
