I would find your local blasting specialist. My calipers and hardware were done by a local blasting only company. They used powder and other non abrasive media to remove just the paint on the calipers and rust on the hardware. Turned out perfect. This won't be available from a coating place. They may have a few different media but they won't have hundreds. You can media blast it properly without fear of damaging the Allen heads but it takes a specialized company to perform the work.
