Valve Seal Removal without damage

This (for me anyway) falls into the category of "is it worth my time to correct this later should the used part fail"....in this particular case, seals are cheap, ~ 30 bucks, and the time it would take to correct is enough that I would just buy the seals and be done with it....unless the old ones all come off nice and clean, no damage....either way is fine....clear as mud? lol
