Stock prep for camp pattern

[muleman69]

Have a plain Jane Kimber desert tan stock and would like to add a camo pattern with some local leaves and needles. What would I use to prep stock so paint will stick? Ascetone ?

Acetone MAY damage the stock. I would try something a bit less potent like denatured alcohol. I have also used Simple Green, then rinsed thoroughly with water and dried with a clean cloth.
