no joke

OK, you guys all heard my silly story about the eight sided rear hub nut and
the wrench I made to get it off.  So now it's off and with the help of my
friend with a hydraulic press the bearings are out of the hubs.  Behind the
bearings are rubber seals which over the last fifty years have mummified and
bonded themselves to the hub.  As my dad used to say they are stuck "like s--t
to an army blanket".  Any of you have a trick way to de-bond these babies
without destroying the hubs?
TIA
