Painting Walnut Stock Black

[Jeff B]

Has anyone tried this with the walnut stocks?

Any suggestions?

With proper surface prep., it should be fine.

I'd lay on a coat or two of matte clearcoat on top of the paint for added protection.

But why would you want to paint over a good looking piece of wood -- unless, of course, it's already dinged up pretty good? Wouldn't it just be easier to get a synthetic replacement stock and refinish the wood?

 

JMHO,

What model of gun do you have? I have a M1 Super 90 with the synthetic that I would trade (stock and forearm) for the walnut if it was in good condition.
