If that is true then you may have something wrong with your forks. Rust and pits are the prime suspects when that happens. Do your forks have any rust near the dust covers?

Anyhow, when you put them back on, you need to use steel wool to get the surface rust off, then fine 400 grit sandpaper for the tougher rust, and JB-weld for the pits and gouges (followed by more sanding).
