Synthetic stock painting.

Anyone tried this…?

Poly stocks are generally of the same material as car bumpers and will need flaming first to ensure paint adhesion.

Ive plastidipped my motorcycle tank with the same stuff (diff brand). Not usre it would hold up too long on a gun stock but it is cheap enough to try.

If you want to toughen it a bit then you can get a finish coat for it.

This is how my tank came out.

Don’t know about that paint but Halfords do camo paints in their car paint spray cans section - I have used it on a number of projects and coupled with a good matt lacquer finish it turned out well and is durable.

The molecules have to be arranged. It is this process in every car plant I had worked at.

I have used EC Paint Equipment Camouflage spray paint, on my AICS does scratch but easily removed or resprayed. Actually just resprayed it the other day

Was that done with an aerosol…?

But have you used “full dip”…?

Halfords or B+Q rattle cans.
No need to get too technical about a 5 minute a colour coat job.

No we don’t…but if something gets broken and it has to be fixed, is it ok to repair/paint it?

Full dip as in the under water based photo film coating?

 

[ruger77]

I had a stock dipped at Hydrograffix York very happy with it

 

[EMcC]

I 'painted' mine using the paint my wife was using to touch up her garden ornaments some sort of enamel I think. I used the tip of a brush.

Nah, that paint in the OP is liquid vinyl wrap.

The first popular commercial product avaliable called PlastiDip so now everyone uses a variant of the name.

+1 for that camo range of paint, for the price of it it's very hard wearing! and gives an even coat
