[TR] Proper gasket installation

What is the proper/recommended procedure for installing various gaskets?  In particular, I'm reinstalling my thermostat cover and water pump.  These gaskets are like thin kraft paper, and obviously are contact with water/coolant.  The other gasket I'm installing is the timing chain cover gasket.  This is a much thicker, heavy black material, and of course contacts oil.  Should they have any kind of dressing?  If so, what kind?  Applied to both sides?

Thanks!
