to split the pads rear shell........
basically stick finger(s) into the hole where the mounting tube fit and push hard or very hard on the shell
it shopuld pop away as it it held to the playing surface moulds via plastic tangs
not done this for ages but memory tells me some seprarte easy and some need a bit of force

when painting if you do it yourself get hold of a book that that shows you how to do fibre glass car body repairs
basically you'll end up sanding with wet and dry  plus perhaps soem filler primers before going to spray and laquer

  Hi Jesper & Dave, thanks for the info.
  The reason I want to paint them is that they are badly scratched.  
  Also, they are not painted on the inside, they are moulded out of 
  black plastic.

  I still haven't figured out how to separate the shell from the 
  head...any ideas (SDS1000 Pads).

  Cheers,,,Drew
