Is the silver finish on the Dual Stainless frame as fragile as the silvery grey finish on the 5.1 Stainless.

Or does it come off just as easily?

I never skirmish my pistols or keep them in holsters, so how well would the Dual Stainless stand up. I want it so that when they become available again I can replace the TM plastic slide with a silver metal one.

If it scratches easily I would probably be better off sending the ordinary black frame on my standard 4.3 for cerakoting.

 
I haven't owned a silver 5.1 but I have had a 4.3 Dual Stainless. The frame is essential hairline polished metal, rather than painted. I certainly can't imagine anything flaking off it if you're not even holstering.
