Does anybody know of a non-destructive way to remove the knob brights from Zenith TO knobs. I have a pair for an H500 that are a pretty corroded and I would like to polish them. I think polishing them would be a whole lot easier if I removed them.

My only idea, and I don't like it, is to drill a small hole through the knob from behind until I hit the bright. Then I could try pushing it off of the knob from behind.

It doesn't seem like there is any space around the edges to allow me to pry them off.

Can't think of anything witty.
