You might get lucky and have it just come off with a little prying, try that first. I've had some pop right off.
I highly recommend these Dremel EZ Locks over the older style cutting wheels that screw into the bit. They're much faster to change, because these wheels get eaten through and torn up pretty easily and quickly. Just get the metal cutting ones, and you should be good to go.
Edit: I also remembered the other reason i like the EZ lock's a lot more. The discs typically die in 3 ways 1) They just get worn all the way down (rare) 2) The outside breaks off 3) (On the old style) They break at the center mounting point. The EZ lock has a wider diameter at the mounting point for the EZ mount and its more reinforced, making it much rarer that they break the 3rd way.
Got this kit works great so far. The keyless chuck works fine too I got.
Which piece are you talking about to sand down the MVP?
Got this too
I always recommend people upgrade to these cuttof wheels instead:

They are way easier to use.

You need to either use a lot less pressure while cutting with the disc, or get some better discs. I use my dremel a ton and definitely get longer life out of a disc than that.
I recently picked up some of these and I'm liking them so far. They seem to last longer than others I've tried, and the "EZ Lock" is totally awesome.
Some cuts I couldn't get with a Dremel. I used the quick detach metal disks http://www.amazon.com/Dremel-EZ406-Cut-Off-Mandrel-Cutting/dp/B000FBLRVA
Haha, when it comes to building my own computers, I have raging OCD; so when it came to modding it and putting a dremel to the nice brushed aluminum case, it was extremely nerve racking. I used a pretty cheap single speed Dremel from Walmart with these metal cutting wheels.
The acrylic sheet that I used was precut and sold off the shelf at Home Depot, it's 8"x10" clear acrylic (.9mm thick)

this is what I've used in the past - probably what you got. That said, I did have to dremel a notch to get them to fit just right. I recommend aquick change disc for that.
