[QUOTE="FatBoy..., post: 54971, member: 349"] Brent, I mask and clean. I'll tape off any visibale surface that I think the epoxy may come into contact with. Then when it squeezes out, I either trim it at that time, or let it set up and contour it with a razor knife. I bed the minimum though. First the ring/lug. Then the tang the next day. Taper on the sides and bottom of the receiver so it's just sitting on the pillars, not squeezed into the stock. Not at all good for a hunting rifle, but fine for my match guns. I have started sealing the barrel channel and all non bedded in-letting with black Dupont Centuri. Not sure if it's the best choice, as it seems that 99% IPA will rub it off the filler of the stocks. It looks great though. I haven't had any solvent on the paint yet, so I have no info on how it'll hold up. FatBoy... [/QUOTE]
