Synthetic Stocks
My question is what to clean them with? My Stevens stock is sticky to the touch. What can I clean it with to get rid of the sticky feeling?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sticky from what ??
( soap and water.../ simple green and water ) ... I wouldn't use acetone or anything like that on a synthetic stock...but solvents like "Shooters Choice choke and shotgun cleaner" have never hurt the one synthetic stock I have on my Benelli Super Sport ... https://www.shooters-choice.com/ |

You could also try windex or similar as well. I'd stay away from anything that might damage plastic as Jim was saying.

You should always test cleaners in a unabtrusive area.
Have you asked Stevens for that ?
