Looks great! But I am curious about the angle of the front sling point and apparently no rear sling point of attachment...Air dry cerakote using sea sponge from lowes over sprayed cerakote. Clear flat over all of it to even out the differences in sheen View attachment 280658
Nice catch.... LMAO...so I was bored before Christmas.....geeeeezHey Skip,
I bet it looks real good with them Christmas lights too while nighttime predator hunts.
Best, JGS
Very nice! Well done!Krylon, I have found the best sponge to be the big "airy" sea sponges from Michael's. I finish with Brownell's Alumahyde. I definitely think less is more, as you can see on the last one, I got a little carried away.

Great job buddy. Your work/hobby looks like the 4-color, $400+ professional Cerakoting work.Air dry cerakote using sea sponge from lowes over sprayed cerakote. Clear flat over all of it to even out the differences in sheen View attachment 280658
Well done!I've done a few. With some history painting other polymer stocks, I use the Krylon Fusion, when possible, as it seems to adhere better than most, as some others have mentioned earlier.
My takes on some of the Altus/Manners color schemes on a couple of KRG Bravo stocks and a Boyd's PV. Stock base colors with torn pieces of Walmart bath sponges torn into random chunks and dipped into puddles of sprayed Krylon. Light color first, followed by darker color. No clear coat needed, to date. Obviously, colors can be varied and additional colors could be included. Less is more when sponge painting, imho.
