Cerakote Question

Guys I traded up for a Kimber Pro Carry (Series 1)and it has a cerakote job. How hard would it be to remove it and get the original stainless look? I'm not saying the cerakote looks bad, it actually looks awesome, but I would like the original finish if possible. If not, oh well, just curious.

I don't know where to begin.
You traded up (presumably you chose this weapon), and there's nothing wrong with it (in fact, it "looks awesome"), but you want to change it anyway?
Get another one with the original finish. Removing the cerakote is going to be more trouble than it is worth. The expense and effort would be better directed towards a new weapon.

To remove I'm pretty sure you would use the same aluminum oxide sandblasting process that was used to apply it, but at a higher pressure.
I could be wrong though.
Tiddlesmcdiddles has a cerakoting setup. I'm sure he can weigh in here.

Original finish is gone. It would cost more than its worth to refinish the stainless steel to its factory look.
