Painting a wood stock...

[John A.]

Duracoat and paint and stuff will work on wood.

prep is key though.

On wood, you really need to get down below the factory polyuerathane or lacquer.

Using very fine sandpaper. This not only makes it smooth, but also gives the paint some tooth to stick to.

Also, sand WITH the grain and not against it.

I also have a plastic 500 stock if you're interested in it for $30.

I recently went a slightly different route than paint on the last wood furniture I fooled with.

I used Dye.

i just did the stock on my Mossberg 802 using the sponge method from the ar-15 forum and it turned out pretty good(i think)
