Seacock maintenance

If things go to plan, I'm going to pull the boat in the next week or so for bottom paint & zincs.*

I'd also like to remove and clean up the seacocks that supply engine cooling water.* They are getting pretty stiff, and have relatively flimsy handles compared to the other seacocks on the boat.

I've never pulled out a seacock before.* I know they use straight threads instead of tapered ones, but I don't really know how they're removed and reinstalled.

Advice, please??

Thanks in advance...
