CALIPER PISTON AND SEAL REMOVAL ?????

[finch wxm]

Anyone got a guide on how to remove everythink ?

I want to get my front calipers powder coated so need to remove pistons and seals

When i painted them they looked rubbish.

I guess im not a painter :-/

Put a bit of wood between the piston and the inner part of the caliper, leave the bleed screw in and use compressed air in the brake line hole and it should slide out

Don't put your fingers in front of it as your blowing it out though

There's a few videos on YouTube about fitting the piston back in
