Need tips for removing Cerakote

So the last step in the CZ75SA/TS Hybrid is to get rid of the coating on the bottom of the slide. Otherwise this thing is sweet. With Hogue grips it feels just like a TS, and the combo of a shadow hammer and a CGW sear makes for a great trigger.

As the pic shows it is pretty ugly on the bottom of the slide, I think it is affecting function. I don't want this rubbing on the bullet nose or the hammer, every other CZ I have has a polished finish at this point. Can't quite figure out how to get after it with tools and still keep the surface true, and I don't have a blast cabinet setup.

Any ideas?

Atlas: Mazel Tov! No wonder you have so many CZs. You are in the process of producing your own shooting team. :)

I've never worked with Cerekote but my first thought was 600-1000 grit wet/dry sand paper.

My slide was coated with Metaloy's "Tactikote" finish last fall. I didn't bother removing the paint on the area you highlighted but my slide's finish is very smooth.
