Restuffing Mershon caps - BrendaAnnD - 09-07-2013

I have two pristine Mershon caps that I want to restuff. My question is: How do I take the tops off the cans without making the cap look like it's been mangled? I'm aware that I can Dremel the tops off, and resolder them when the restuff is finished, but I would rather not do this, since these caps are still shiny and totally unmolested.

Thanks in advance.
