Default How to replace radiator drain plug?

It's a plastic plug that opens counterclockwise but doesn't come all the way out. It was fine until I flushed the radiator and screwed it back in, now it leaks. I tried Teflon tape to no avail, so I just ordered a new one from the auto parts store for $4.29. How do I get the old plug to come out without breaking anything?

Not sure on that one... maybe next time just take the hose off and flush it that way ? I had thought about flushing mine too, and i saw the hose with the squeeze clamps on it...
