I painted my stock and I first prepped it by Samsung it with some automotive 150 grit sandpaper and then rubbed it down with some mineral spirits to take any oils and dirt off. I than taped everything off with blue painters tape, take your time here it will pay off in the end and use a really sharp razor blade to trim the tape. I than used krylon camo spray paint and applied 2 coats and then I used some rustoleum stone paint the kind that leaves the surfaced textured and wow it turned out great but you must let it dry and cure. and it will be really durable. I don't know how to post pics or I would. I can e-mail them if anyone wants just send me a e-mail at bootarcher@yahoo.com and I will forward them to you
