Why not leave it as it is?

 

Give it a good polish and job done?

 

I have some very good condition pads if you really want to replace them?

 

Some do stainless steel cut inserts but depends the on what you like?

How long did it take you to get all of the glue off. I've used the Tardis, but it still left some of the glue on there
