Bravo paint job done!

First time I have attempted a stock paint job and jumped in head first. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Looks great, good job! What kind of paint did you end up going with?

Krylon Fusion and Krylon Color Maxx, the black is some enamel my brother had that was Ace hardware brand. Pretty much just found the colors I wanted since I couldn't find all the colors I wanted in the same type.

I like how clean the edges came out. I always struggle with over spray when using rattle cans.

Didn't spray anything, used a sponge.

That is probably my problem then.

Very nice looking stock Sir!

Sponge is the beat way to go, I only spray paint the black base coat.

Just curious why you went this way over cerakote

From my research this way lasts plenty long and is waaaaay cheaper than cerakote.

So my only question is "Do you wear face camo the same pattern?". Gotta see that post pic if you do!!

 

[ShtrRdy]

That turned out NICE!

Did you hit it with a good matte or satin clear coat afterwards? It will greatly increase the life of the paint job.
This one was rattle can painted for about 5 years of a lot of field and range use, and still looked pretty darn good.

Brownell's Alumahyde...A little more glossy than I like, but I think once it cures you can buff it out with steel wool...

I have done 3 stocks with krylon and the Alumahyde, but haven't buffed the shiny out...
