1100 Stock Problems

[FunGunner]

Well, I picked up the better half's 1100 TL 20 youth with the synthetic stock today. While cleaning it up a bit, to get the foam bits out of the action and so on, I got a bit of break free Powder Blast on the stock. Now there are some pretty bad white spots on the stock where the cleaner fell that I can’t seem to get out.

Anyone else run into this?


Thanks in advance

Yes, on an 1100 synthetic. It wasn't Powder Blast, but the other spray cleaners I use did the same thing. Try rubbing a little thin oil on it, something like Birchwood-Casey Sheath. I don't think you can clean the spots off - it looks to me like the cleaner is stripping some of the oil/petroleum out of the plastic and cleaning will just make it worse.

Okay, thanks, about what I thought.
