2000 grit sandpaper with a little CLP, followed by a single pass with Mother's Mag and Aluminum polish will bring back the factory finish on a gun with light scratches or a couple of small dings
for slightly deeper scratches/light gouges, add an additional step of 400 grit sandpaper too.
***I know that you want a "factory" refinish, but why spend the money on a stainless gun when you can do it yourself?***
The below 629 was pretty rough when I got it (had yoke and cylinder endshake, plus quite a few light handling marks). After about 5-6 hours including a trigger job, plus some grips that I had sitting aside for her, she looks as good as she did when she rolled off the assembly line 38 years ago.
