Aftermarket (Roguard) refinish of PT1911 slide-UPDATE w/PICS

For whatever reason my edit to the title of my original post (Aftermarket finish won't stick to Taurus...?) wouldn't show on the main PT1911 forum page, so I'm posting this for anyone interested in the outcome of that refinish who didn't notice my follow up post a few days ago.

I received the slide back from Robar last week. Total time from drop of with USPS to arriving back at my door was 26 days, about half of the time originally quoted. I'd say the finish is really flawless. I'm a tad OCD and can usually spot something, however minor or nit-picky, but not on this particular job. My only concern was that maybe I should have gone with satin over matte because it's really pretty flat, but I've come to like it and it is pretty close to the flat factory finish that's on the frame and was on the original slide in terms of sheen (the Roguard is way nicer and smoother, and probably won't wear through from a cleaning with a plastic pick, as happened on my other Taurus). The grips are from Raasco Grips, which came to me a little too shiny and strangely with a different level of shine on each grip. I've sprayed them with 2 different brands of matte/flat clear, and they're still not flat enough for my tastes. Anybody know of a truly flat finish I can spray on them, please let me know.
