I've been looking into this and am thinking about doing it, first to a $100 Marlin for practice and then for my .223 bolt gun. Couple of questions though. I've seen differing instructions regarding the process. One thing said to apply duracoat over blueing but another recommends lightly sanding the blueing then applying the duracoat. All of this of course after the degreasing prep. Which is truly the right way? Also for the synthetic stock, do I need to rough that up as well with sand paper before applying? Thanks.
