Refinishing Colored Bowls
I have a couple of pipes on the way that have colored bowls. One is a painted green, the other is a stained blue. Can these be refinished in a more natural color or would the bowls need to be sanded so deep that they would be ruined in the process?

 The only green pipe I've seen is the Peterson St.Paddy's releases.

The green one is not stained, it's painted. The blue ,however, is a Big Ben that is stained a baby blue. The grain is visible through the stain.

Re: Refinishing Colored Bowls
I received the pipes today and I was wrong about the green one, it is stained. The blue Big Ben has some peeling of the clear coat near the rim. Can that finish be sanded off leaving a stained wood finish? The price per pipe was fairly cheap, so I thought these might be good to experiment with.
