A little quick DIY for stock texture, for those who like to do it themselves.
|
 |
|
This can be done using Marine-Tex or Steel-Bed. I am sure there are some other products that could be used but these are the best I have found with Steel-Bed being the best for me.
|
 |
|
Tape off the area you want to put the texture. Spread a very thin coat of the Steel-Bed on the stock, just enough to cover the area.
|
|
Using the tongue depressor that is in the kit or something similar, bounce the flat part of the stick on the still wet bedding to get the textured effect.
|
 |
Once the bedding has dried for about an hour, and still kind of tacky, remove the tape, pulling at a sharp angle to leave a nice sharp edge. If the bedding has a sharp raised area where the tape was, wet your finger and rub along the edge and it will knock off the edge but still give that nice sharp transition.
