I'm having the stock of an old shotgun refinished. It will be used in all weather conditions. Will this product work for my purpose?

I gotta believe this would work great for any wood finish in outdoor conditions. My bar top still looks new after being in rain, heat and sun for the past year here in St Louis.

If you give it plenty of time to dry between coats, and give it the full 7 coats, I would say yes. It will have no problem with the weather. The only problem might be that it is very soft. What you might expect to be scratches could end up being gouges in the finish. We refinished a pair of front doors, and after 2 months no scratches on them though.

"I've never used grease on firearms in cold weather." It thickens with cold weather.... Oil only is your best bet.

For touch up it can be used if you are doing cold bluing but it will not exactly match a flat black finish. I re-blued a Russian Mosin Nagant and the finish came out good but only because of extensive prepping the surface. If the surface is not prepped enough then you will end up with a rusty reddish looking color.

Maybe if you use a pretreatment like scotch guard I wouldn't let it get wet but if it's under a covered area then maybe and it might fade but it would look very vintage faded. But I don't think it's made for outdoors. But I think if your cautious could be used.

I always coat my barrel with it as a rust preventative and to make fouling easier to remove, it seems to work well for that purpose. In my opinion a a bore cleaner like Hoppes 9 should still be used on occasion.

I've used mine in all kinds of weather. Snow, drizzle, cold temps. I however do take precautions. Especially with rain and wet snow. Take care of your equipment and it will take care of you.

Not sure if it will work on a area that is subject to heat, it worked just fine on a head gasket on a finish gun. Do you have any of the old existing gasket left see if it has any metal or flame resisiance material in it. Sorry

Yes, but the heat might effect the little rubber grippers inside the clamps (meaning melt them flat or otherwise) if you shoot it enough times in succession which might get the barrel hot enough to do so, I would think. Better to mount it on the feed tube magazine if you have the clearance. I didn't have the clearance, so I returned it.

It might if you hack it up. It'll look like junk, with ragged foam sticking out. Would probably fall apart easily that way. I would say if you want to keep this is one chunk they only fit wood stock Remington shotguns.

I use it on a ventilated barrel and it works fine. it would probably work on a sealed barrel too.

No problem. I've used it on 3/8" thick siding with great results along with heavy framing and metal connectors. I've found on the 1 1/2 - 2" nails you will need to turn your pressure down to about 50 psi and then ajust it up until you get the right penetration. I would suggest that if this is the only application you will be using this on, get a lighter gun. If you want an all purpose gun, this is the one to get.

I'm sure it would depend on how bad the surface was. Mine was light / new rust. I didn't do any prep and had great results.

Yes I believe the Hoppes kit will work for it, I have an antique shotgun once used by my Grandfather, it has a very long smoothbore barrel. There are enough extensions in the kit so it can brush and wipe down the barrel. Mine worked fine.

If you're asking about putting it on a wooden stock , then definitely. Mineral oil is great to help keep wood well-conditioned...it does darken would however, and won't penetrate the wood of you're guns have thick varnish or shellac as some do...hope this helps!

I live in Arizona and sprayed this on a wooden stock of a shotgun which also gets incredible hot. Still as pink as can be. Then again, I also put an acrylic finish on top of it and applied it VERY thick.

I believe you can. As soon as the snow melts I am using it to set the iron sites of my Mosin Nagant at 100 yards. s.gallentine @sbcglobal.net and I will let you know how it goes

I don't see why not. It is semi sticky and I moved to up on my shotgun stock a bit after I had it further back on the stock. Seemed to work ok moving it and left no residue. Good looking but did not, however keep my cheek from becoming bloodied from recoil......obviously the gun does not fit me.
