I have a Nylon Glass filled Monte Carlo stock that I wanna paint...would a couple layers of spray paint some stencils and a clear coat work just fine or am I out of my league for now. Thanks you guys have been so helpful here lol!
There's spray paint made especially for plastics and such. It sticks like poop to a baby blanket! Don't even have to scuff up the surface, just wipe it down with acetone to remove dirt and fingerprints, etc. Comes in all camo colors. Spray a base color then take some leaves or whatever and spray other colors over them to make patterns. There's demos on youtube and some threads on here showing how others have done it.
Here is an H&R .25-06 I did

I used Krylon fusion for both projects, and spray on acrylic (clear coat)
It takes a lot of prep. Need to make sure all grease and oils are off before you paint..
I will give you one piece of advice. I would never do this right before hunting season. It will smell like fresh paint for several weeks, and months even. The clear coat has a very strong smell that does not dissipate very quickly. Something you want to do right after season is over. Just my opinion
