Any tips for overhaluing a Deore hub (present generation)? My stock Surly Cross hubs feel dry. Any tricks to getting the rubber seals off? Any suggestions appreciated!

In case anyone else wants to know . . .
Pulled the seals off carefully by hand, and loosened the lock nuts and cones. The grease was still clean! Readjusted the cones. A lttle tricky reseating the seals; worked them in with my fingers on the edges until the axle/bearing assembly moved with a minimum of drag.
Piece of cake!
