Sig on their website refuses to refinish their frames as it will compromise its strength.

SIG says a lot of things
Most finish treatments involve removing the prior treatment. There are different ways to do this. If abrasion is used there is potential for too much abrasion to remove enough of the material to cause damage. That would be a bubba job. Companies that specialize in finishing are rarely so stupid. Some of them even use chemical baths to remove the finish.
If you look online you'll find numerous posts on different websites of folks refinishing their SIGs, frames included. I haven't read any glaring issues that weren't a result of someone trying to do a home job that went bad.
Google Robar and see what comes up. I would have them refinish anything I own I trust them that much. The downside is the turnaround can be long, 2 months or so.
