luckily someone on CGN advised me not to use rockerguard on the stock because its too soft so i bought some duplicolor spray on bedliner for 11 bucks from CT. seems like it will be durable and it looks cool too.

before i painted it, it was pretty shiney so if your going to try this on a hunting gun and want to keep it black id recomend painting it afterwards. after it is painted you cant see the texture as much but it still looks good to me;)

thanks;)

only complaint about the bedliner spray was sometimes a little glob of the spray would go on the stock. not really a big deal but im picky like that. think it may have been my fault for not cleanign the nozzle often though :redface:
 
What a great idea.
IIRC you can buy the old style paint used in car trunks that has a texture to it as well.
Is that a wood or composite stock?
 
is that krylon the "camouflage system" paint? I tried it on a metal ammocan that was rusted to crap, over a coat of krylon primer, and I found that although it was very un-reflected as advertised, it scuffed REALLY easily. Just by rubbing it against something left a huge mark. Needless to say I was quite dissapointed.

Did your paint job manage to harden enough to avoid scuffing and marks?
 
are the scuff marks you are talkin about just shiney marks left in the paint after something hard rubs against it? thats how it was on another gun i painted with krylon. now a year later it doesnt scuff very easily. not sure how long it takes to fully cure:confused:
 
I believe skullboy has posted that krylon makes a flat clear coat that he sprays over his work to protect it, this should prevent that scuffing you are talking about.
Worth a try no?
 
I sprayed my old crappy reddish-brown plastic SKS stock black a couple of weeks ago... depending on how it holds up I may try the bedliner... :cool:
 
I was wondering if you stripped the previous finish off the stock before you applied the bed liner? Also, is the bed liner semi transparent? I was thinking of coating the stock first with the olive colour then giving a thin coat of bedliner. I thought the bedliner might protect the paint and still give an olive tint to it. Might protect the paint underneath to stand up to scuffs and so forth. Any ideas? Thanks
 
Spray on Bedliner is OPAQUE.

However, if you're willing to spend the $$ on it, you can get custom color code bedliner, but it's not rattle can type. DIY kits are available, and most of them can be brushed, rolled or sprayed on (provided you have an air compressor, and the according spray gun.)
 
if you hold the spray can far away from the stock you should be able to get a speckled effect so the whole stock doesnt turn black. maybe a couple coats on bedliner on the stock like normal then just keep the paint can farther away to have a bunch of paint specs. might look good;)
 
I just redid my M305 stock last night with the bedliner. Works pretty good, and hides imperfections quite nicely.

I also finished it with a few topcoats of the Krylon Camo system in Khaki. That's what was on it before, and if you use a matte clearcoat on top, it's a VERY tough surface. Not easily scratched at all. Just make sure you use a good grey primer, and you won't have any issues with the paint chipping off.
 
for my stocks i use the krylon paint as well, 2 coats of primer and i then put 5 coats of colour, topped with 2 coats of matte clear coat. looks exceptional and seems to be a very durable coating so far.
I also contacted the company that makes "rhino liner", the original spray on bedliner product and they gave me a contact for getting custom colours. I haven't followed up on it yet but if I do find a source for this product in the colours us shooters and hunters favour, I'll pass the info on.
 
The Canadian Tire Bedliner Spray is the cat's ass when it comes to stock finishes. Looks good, is durable and has a great "feel". Cheap and easy to apply too.

I've used it twice - once when I repaired a black synthetic stock that I bought cheap, and the second time over a wood stock that I built up with a cheek piece, etc (and looked cheezy). In the first case, I made the repair with epoxy and the Bedliner covered the repair perfectly, in the second, looks like a synthetic.

Just clean and sand the surface with medium paper. Drys in seconds.

Highly recommended.
