I know what you mean about those nice new shiney stocks with a plastic like varnish on them. One scratch and they look like hell. The only one I have like that I stripped it, sanded it smooth, added a little of water based stain to restore color and then gave it a heavy dose of oil finish, many coats. then gave it a good coat of wax. Scratches are easlily fixed and dont show much. A little xxxx steel wool and reoil and you may never know the scratch was there.
