Hi,

 

My first air rifle was a B2 (is that groans i hear?) Anyway, I have a new air rifle now so decided to strip and re finnish the stock, However when I took the butt cap off, I discovered that the stock was made up of 3 peices of wood, so rather than a re-finnish I decided to do a re-spray. I used some sandpaper to rough up the surface and then hung it up in the shed surrounded by newspaper and sprayed it, I only used one coat but it was enough, The stock now looks great (imo), definately better than the horrible thick brown varnish!

 

Here are the pics, let me kow what you think.
