nath92 84 Posted September 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Its a pre catalised enamel laquer mate , the brief from the customer was to try to achieve the look of the bsa tactical stocks , this is what i came out with , also the beech has been stained with black nitrocellulose stain as a basecolour Quote Link to post
