RE: STOCK REFINSHING QUESTION?
Deerslayer has good info here but I would add that once stripped down 1st time let it dry completely and you will see any "missed" spots, they will return to a glossy finishthe dust between the coats of clear I always wipe the entire stock clean using a tack cloth. These can be found at any home depot or hardware store. As for the finish I recommend the Minwax Helmsman as it is specifically formulated for outdoor/UV conditions.
