You will need to purchase a variety of different colors of sprays.
Here's what I used:
"Krylon" Semi Flat Black
"Mohawk" Tone Finish Medium Brown/American Walnut
"Mohawk" Tone Finish Cherry
"Mohawk" Extra Dark Walnut
"Krylon" Matte Finish
I know the Mohawk finishing sprays are not easy to find but you can
order them online.
1. Paint the entire gun with the "Krylon" Semi Flat Black. This should dry within 2 to 3 minutes depending on temperature.
2. Mask off the areas that should not be wooden. I am using a latex based paint (house paint) to create the illusion of wood grain. Ivory colored latex paint is a good choice. I used a 1" disposable brush to make the grain. A rough brush is better than a super soft brush.
3. I applied a thin coat of the ivory latex paint to the stock. You want black streaks showing through. It should not be too thick. This paint dries in approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Once the latex paint dried, I sprayed an even coat of the "Mohawk" Tone Finish Med Brown/American Walnut over the entire stock. This color acts as the base color.
5. I sprayed "Mohawk" Extra Dark Walnut to the outer edges of the stock. You do not want to spray this color over the entire stock. This color adds the "used" look to the stock.
6. I lightly sprayed "Krylon" Semi Flat Black to the "used" areas. The key word here is "lightly". This will give it more of a drastic contrast.
7. Finally, I sprayed an even coat of "Mohawk" Tone Finish Cherry over the entire stock. It is important to apply this color last. When this is applied over top of the Black and other colors, it will bring everything to a reddish wood tone.
8. Lastly, I sprayed the entire stock with the "Krylon" Matte Finish spray. This will remove the brand new shiny look from the stock.
