Excluding rules on the home page

So I would like to remove my background CSS from my home page only.

The class is:

#core_padding {
padding-top:0px;
background-image:url(/images/flash/content-bg.png); background-position:top; background-repeat:repeat-x;
border-color:#B0B000;
border-style:solid;
border-width: 1px;

-webkit-box-shadow: 0px -1px 30px 0px #333;
-moz-box-shadow: 0px -1px 30px 0px #333;
box-shadow: 0px -1px 30px 0px #333;

/**radius**/

-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 10px;
-webkit-border-top-right-radius: 10px;
-moz-border-radius-topleft: 10px;
-moz-border-radius-topright: 10px;
border-top-left-radius: 10px;
border-top-right-radius: 10px
}

When I use the display none like so:

.home #core_padding {display:none;}

It seems to remove everything!

I simply would like to remove the former and not the content!
