Mapex Drum

How to paint a drum kit?
I paint my Mapex Q series drum kit. I know I have to be dismantled and the sand it and what no. But my real question is, do I have to remove the film de''''qu'elle in it? If so, how I can do this? And if I take the drum from collapsing?
Take the short film nescesary and easy. Find the seam, that heat with a hairdryer for a minute or two, then up the joint with a knife or spatula and remove the battery. Go slowly and carefully to avoid while pulling up the wood. The surface must remain intact the movie is just a cover that is not something together. Put "remove the film Drum" on google or web forums to search for battery manufacturers, as ghostnote Drumshed and detailed instructions. These forums are also a good place for ideas easy and economical way to finish.
