[Collins] trim ring

[YASH@aol.com]

HI.
Iam in he process of rebuilding my 312b-4 all done except the cabinet. It needs to be repainted and I can not figure how  to get the plasic  trim, off the cabinet front edge. If I have to, I can mask the trim but thats not a good way.I need to sand the cabinet and the trim will get scratched. If I screw the trim up is there any where in the world ,I could get another one. Iam hopeing the trim is not cemented to the cabinet edge. 
  Any help on this and I will be forever greatful. Thanks a head of time for any help anyone can supply.
  Ps. using he new AOR DDS-2A vfo on my KWM-2A, fantastic. It brings the old collins into today. A real upgrade!!!If any one want input about the AOR/KWM drop me a note.
thanks
