I'll start this off with an easy, cost effective, removable, adhesive vinyl wrap made by 3M. It can be heated (with a blow dryer) and stretched to fit. The texture isn't very grippy, but the overall look can be very effective.

I love that look! Just adhesive vinyl from 3M huh?

I posted this earlier but it fits here too. Cool idea thanks Michael.

Oooh... multicam jungle Hydrodip?

Michael - you mentioned duct tape.... I want to see that one!

 

[Centercut]

Great idea @michael, I'm with you... I had my hydro-dipped Bobcat at EBR this year. Air fill dust cap also laser engraved with my AGN name and Hawaiian Islands.. .It somehow ended up on the FX Facebook page.

Before and after photos of my 1960's vintage Voere .22. Before refinishing, the stock was so dark from about a half-century of who knows what that I had to look very close and hard to realize the wood underneath was a diamond in the rough. I refinished it with Fullerplast, a two-part catalytic varnish I used in my custom recurve and longbow-building venture 20 years previous. Originally an automotive dash-board finish (yes, really), Fullerplast is virtually impervious to solvents; much less anything less.

In my opinion, it is criminal to cover beautiful wood with cartoon graphics. But before anyone starts piling-on, not necessarily criminal to cover homely wood with graphics... and may be near-godliness to cover plastic with anything!

My cricket. 25 got a makeover.

I know I've shown this before but absolutely love this gun. The same guy that hydro-dipped my stock also did Centercut's sweet rig. Stoti

Man, love the Kryptic. I was looking at that one in blue and gray for my Wildcat. Very nice.

 

[blackdiesel]

It breaks my heart to see someone cover up a nice wood stock with hydro dip.
