About LinkBacksHey. I’ve a Stug stock that I like but I don’t like the carbon fibre look. Can I paint it. I’m sure I can. Anyone got recommendations on how and with what? I do like the flat stone grey finish on my Forbes. Slightly textured for a bit better grip too.

Painting a carbon fibre stock
The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

Know any car painters? If it's a single colour that would be easy, just get some matting base added to dull the finish. 2 pack sticks like shit.

There’s a car painting place in Palmy called Spray Factory that also does hydro dipping. Hes done a few gun stocks. Think he charges about $300 for a stock.

Barrel and action are Gunkote in matt black. The rifle is actually stainless. Shouldn't have any corrosion issues.
