| ah right, sorry, i dint keep up with mattys for sale thread.
With those, its just a case of banging the centres out.
use a brass mallet, harder than rubber but wont damage | |

| If the dish/lip sticks out more than the face then my other method would be to place them face down on some carpet.
Then a decent size block of wood and hammer will do the trick | |
