My 2 cents.
I bought one of the flush sets with the rubber gaurd. Tried it a few
times, but because I had difficulty compressing the rubber, the
manufactured head would not sit down flush. Took the rubber ring off
and have been using it that way since. Didn't think about trimming the
rubber flush with the head. I like it better overall because it has a
larger radius than the smaller one that came with my tool kit. The
smaller one seems to leave a small depression secondary to it's smaller
radius curve.

Doc
The first thing I did was grind the red rubber head down on my swivel, but
try this tip.
I use 2" clear standard US Postal packaging tape over the head of the rivet
gun.
The tape is tough and lasts a long time. In combination with a strip of the
same tape on the skin, and at times I tape right over the special back rivet
tape. Rivet manufactured heads set down tight and flush. The result is no
marking on the skins when riveting. I remove the tape right away and use a
product called SEM Solve as adhesive remover. There are different qualities
of packaging tape and it's cheap but the postal standard works best and
pulls right off no problem. I know that it all gets covered with paint but I
wish I had used this method when riveting the VS.
Let me know what you think of this method.
Might there be any other little tips or tricks that the list should know
about or try?
