Default Anodized handgun frame

I was wondering about how to refinish such an item.

1. Do the anodized layers that firearm manufacturers use on their aluminum frames compare to an anodized finish I would get from using one of your anodization kits, or are they "hard anodized"

2. Can you matte electroless nickel using zincate on top of an anodized layer of such a part and retain strength? If so, how thick would this new zincate/nickel layer be?

3. How well would a person prepare an anodized surface for application of Teflon? I was thinking using a light pressure blast, just enough to scuff up the surface

Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!
