ok, before anyone explains about how blasphemous it would be to put bedliner on a classic wood stock, its been broken, glued and screwed and filled. It just so happens to be broken at tthe grip and the forestock where one would normaly place their hands for shooting.
Now, let me elaborate a bit, I picked up a beater savage 340 30-30, it was cheap, I knew there was damage to the stock, the rifleing and blueing are pretty good, the stock wasnt good, but I knew that there was some damage before I bought it.
I should mention, this rifle will be a loaner to get new shooter into hunting, I think its a decent caliber for a new shooter to get comfortable with and cheap enough to lend out. I just want it to not look like old torn hand me down clothes to keep it appealing for them.
Having sanded it down last evening to take out some dings, get the stain off, shaped the grip so it wasnt so square I was also able to see what its potential was for staining the wood, it was once a decent piece of furniture, I threw some tru oil on it but its a scarred up ugly old girl due to its franken stock. Best solution I can see is to roll or spray some bedliner on it.
So... Not wanting to spend $80 on a bedliner kit from crappy tire, is there any good options for bed liner in a spray can or something cheap to roll on? Id like something thick with lots of texture that will bond to tru oil reasonably well.
If anyone has a picture for the product they have tried that would most appreciated! Thanks guys.

Bed liner is very durable & paintable with the right coatings. On an old beat up stock, just sand with
