I got the FMF gold series fatty pipe with a little surface rust in a small spot and I wanna know if wet-sanding it then put some clear-coat would be ok or would it just burn off after a few uses?
I need polishing advice.

c;ear coat will burn . mothers wont do crap for it. it needs to be polished with compound and a high speed wheel, and even then it will come back eventually
some say 0000 steelwool works good for getting the rough stuff off, then i always use mothers with a cloth polishing wheel in a drill
some of us non "polishing guru's" (442) dont have a bench buffer, but make do just fine

been there done that..... 0000 steel wool and mothers....
get mothers on the steel wool and go to town, than once the rust is off, hand rub it with mothers and a rag, than a clean rag

awk im not saying u need professional equipment. a bench grinder with a harbor freight buff wheel will do the job
much better than steelwool and mothers ever will lolawk im not saying u need professional equipment. a bench grinder with a harbor freight buff wheel will do the job
/\/\/\ of course it will bro, just bustin your balls a little, if this is all he's gonna polish, one small spot on a pipe, thats still on the bike......
some elbow grease or small drill buffer and mothers will do
thanks fellas thats more or less what i got in mind but its off the bike because im replacing the piston
is there anything i can do for my fmf gold series fatty? it has lost it's chrome altogether once you get close to the part where the flange goes, it is all black and a little less than half the pipe is black.
steel wool and rubbing compound. and a few hours will get it close-ish
then steel wool with mother's polish
then rub it down with a rag and the mothers, wipe clean and see if you're happy...if not, back to the beginning.
the drill would make it happen a lot faster though!
