Thread: Tikka T3 Stock Paint job

Glad it’s working for you too. When did you do yours?

January last year

Yea that’s nice! Glad it’s holding up well.
If I was gonna do it again I’d certainly do the speckling underneath the ‘base colour coat’ as well.

Tidied up an old project today. Used this product to add a small amount of texture to the stock and it came out pretty good.
It's not an aggressive texture but could be a good option to add to the pistol grip and forend of carbon stocks.

I was looking at trying this out.
Has it had any abuse yet?

None at all but I’ll report back after Matariki when I’ve got a week in the hills. Applied 4 coats and skipped the clear coat.
