My Finnlight had the issue and I finally got fed up with it and tried the brake cleaner route to remove the soft touch. I just did it a couple months ago and I’m pretty happy with the result. I took it slow but didn’t take all the precautions I read about like taping off the inserts and recoil pad. It’s now just a slick black stock with the same grey rubber inserts. It’s not as nice as it was new but much better than the sticky stock.

Your rubber inserts are as sensitive, if not more so, using my Xtremas as indication.

Google “painting a rifle stock with stone texture paint” buddy of mine did one with krylon and multiple coats of flat sealer and it came out pretty slick. I was gonna paint my daughters pink gun a while back but ended up just selling it and upgrading.
