Default If I glass bead...

I recently have had a few challenges with my car.

I have a cracked throttle body on my carb and my side pipes are cracked.

SO, I am replacing the carb, but the side pipes I am going to have welded. Once welded, I was thinking of glass beading them.

They are ceramic coated and Lone Star will not warranty them as they are over a year old.

Here's the question: If I glass bead the pipes, will it destroy the ceramic coating over the pipes?

Second question: if your pipes were cracked and they were ceramic coated, would you weld and re-coat? What advice would you give?

Thanks
