Advice on refinishing an aluminum framed Sig Login/Join

I have a Sig P220 Elite Scorpion in .45ACP. I love how the gun shoots, but I've gotten tired of the FDE look. I want to convert it to a durable black or maybe dark grey finish. I remember reading quite a while back that it was difficult to refinish an aluminum framed gun since removing the old finish could remove the anodizing and weaken the metal. Does anyone know of a safe way to do this and someone that is skilled enough to do it right?

Cera-Hide black or Tritanium gray by CCR. Don't worry. They will NOT strip off the anodization from the alloy frame.

Their house black might look nice.

Here’s my P229 in tritanium and my P228 in CPII/Nikote. Ignore the cat hair

I agree with everyone else, CCR.

For me they were slow and not very responsive in communication. But man, they did a GREAT JOB on my old beat up, W German P220. CCR is really good!

Same answer as above. (The responders to your query have a collective 56K posts on this forum. That alone should provide THE answer to your question.) Smile
