Not doing a full dis- and reassembly for refinishing is worse than a total waste of time. Not only will you be out the cost of the materials, but you'll be out the cost of having a professional stripping all of that mess off and doing it over. Here's some photo's of a hack job done on a SIG P-226. The owner took it to a person claiming to be a "Certified Gunsmith" for a refinish job with duracoat. It was supposed to be Tan and Black. See the patterns? The so-called gunsmith didn't disassemble it! He just masked it off and sprayed away.

Now, I don't like duracoat aka Polane-T for a variety of reasons. It's not as durable as they claim, it has zero chemical resistance, it won't burnish, it's too thick for internal parts, etc, etc. However, none of those reasons can account for this awful mess. This butcher didn't know how to take a SIG apart so he didn't. Please don't misunderstand! I'm not whacking on anybody for not being able to or not wanting to disassemble a firearm. The CZ82 is not really difficult but it does have a couple of tricky spots. What I'm venting about is the person who claims to be a Gunsmith who then does this type of hack mess. Ok, vent mode off!
Onward! The preparation is more than half of the total job. Proper surface prep will make it look good and last a long time. Improper surface prep can lead to bad things happening to the metal under the finish. The CZ82 is a great little pistol and very popular as a CCW. If your's is worth refinishing, then it's worth doing it right no matter who you have do it.
