MS Stock Discoloration
      22/07/16 11:36 PM

I recently acquired a 1961 MCA. A previous owner installed a slip on rubber recoil pad. The area covered by the pad has darkened. I believe it is the finish only. It looks like the result of a reaction of the rubber and the finish. I'm afraid the stock will need refinishing, unless anyone has an idea of how to reduce the discoloration. I'm in Houston if anyone can suggest a smith that might undertake refinishing or stripping the old finish for me. In the alternative are there any suggestions as to a stripper. Other than this issue the stock is in great condition and bluing is near perfect.
Thanks in advance for any input.
