If you sand that steel, you may very well be removing the finish on it. I don't sand that well, I would probably send the pistol out to be refinished professionally and you make the choice of finish. | +1, you beat me to it! DuraCoat or KB Gun Kote... Your surface is already prepped. Just degrease with some acetone or something of the sort, disassemble, spray and then bake... Not quite as pretty as polished blue, but would be one tough armor shell coupled with the parkerize....... And would solve your lint problem.
