Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

Another question. Did you strip all of the original paint off the stock to make it just the carbon black? And if so, did you sand it off or did you use some type of stripper?

When I did mine, I just lightly sanded the area that I wanted to build up. I was able to get to carbon in a couple of spots, but I didn't remove all the paint. I just painted over the paint on the rest of the stock when I did my finish paint.
