received my HRA service grade this morning, its all HRA except for the bolt, GI wood all walnut matching, 1&1/2 on the muzzle, almost 100% black(now thats it
cleaned its more grey green) park, was slathered in cosmo, took me 4 hours to clean it, wiped the stock with dna , THEN USED THE FAIRTRIMMERS, AS
DIRECTED ON A FINISHED STOCK, if your on the fence about trying fairtrimmers buy it worked great, this is the sharpest rifle CMP has ever shipped me, crown is
great bore is mirror and spotless, stock only had several dings, one from a neighbors oprod wouldnt steam out, but otherwise it cleaned up great,
M.H.
Notice how effective Fairtrimmer's Military oX stock oil is at refurbishing an existing finish that really needed it
without stripping and completely refinishing! -Frank.

+1!!
I first tested it on an old, beat-up Yugo Mauser 24/47 stock. What was a piece of crap now looks great.
I then used it on my Inland's wood. Gorgeous...and the stuff smells great!

Fairtrimmers oil is the stuff to use. I stripped my stock bare and steamed out the dents, put the hand guards in the dishwasher. Waited a few weeks to be sure
its entirely dry then added Fairtrimmers mix and it looks like a perfect USGI color even all around. I would post pictures but I couldn't get the lighting right with the
sun down.
