Anyone know if the NP3+ on an alloy frame with stainless slide (Sig 229)  will fully color match?

It will be close but not a match . Electroless Nickel Teflon NP3 will look different on Alloy then it does Stainless or carbon Steel

I can't see any difference between the SS slide and alloy frame on my NP3+ refinished P229....

Had a West German P226 done years ago by Robar,  it was a very close match. Had to look really close to see the difference. It wasn't enough to bother me at all.
My pistol was a U118 prefix. Don't know if the aluminum frame and stamped slide made a difference.  Couldn't tell the difference at all  between the stamped slide and the welded on  barrel bushing part of the slide.
