I know I've been posting my painting trials and failures but I have everything put back together. Thought I'd post the end results. I taped off the butt pad when I painted along with the barrel channel and action. For some reason the sticky stuff didn't completely release from the butt pad so it's got a terrible sticky touch to it. My wife sells Norex a cleaning product so she's working on it as we speak to show me how well it does or doesn't work. Here is new look

As I said very nice looking. Wouldn't 90% isopropyl alcohol work for getting that sticky stuff off??

Looks great Chad! And yes, I have had that situation with the adhesive from the tape sticking to the rubber on the sides of the butt pad. When your paint is dry, tape it off and use lacquer thinner or acetone on it. It comes off. With the Boyd's stocks the coating they use does not get effected by the thinners. It is some sort of epoxy and once it cures, just about nothing will penetrate or dissolve it so no need to tape it off. Richard
