Does anyone know how to apply a rough grip texture to a Glock (or any other plastic gun) using epoxy? I'm not talking about stippling with a soldering iron, but rather using epoxy to build up some material and then somehow shaping that material into a coarsely textured surface.

Examples:

Roll on truck bed liner applied with a sea sponge.  You can paint or whatevercoat with your favorite firearm refinishing product or leave as is.

Or your favorite epoxy product applied and finished the same way.

Instead of rolling it on, get a course sponge and dab the bed liner on. The courseness of the sponge will determine how course the finish will be. I would get some sponges and test them on a piece of cardboard or some other disposable scrap.

Another pointer: take your time masking the area. Masking will probably take you 4x as long as applying the bed liner itself.
