Does grinding them wear through the hardness? Do they have to be heat treated after they are ground?

HOWEVER: there is no fixture that actually restores the original radius to the pad, the accuracy of the finished product depends largely on the skill of the operator.

Agreed, you need a very light touch/minimal material removal.
