Removing faceplate on '06

Hey,

I have a black radio from an '06 ss, and the faceplate has some ware spots and I would really like to touch it up and spray over it. I have tried removing the faceplate but the volume and tune knobs stop it from coming off so I can spray it. I have pulled pretty hard on them to the point where i thought I could break them, but still nothing. Is there some trick to getting these knobs off without damaging the radio?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt
