Sometimes I use a rubber tip air blow gun to remove pistons. Like wrap the caliper half in a rag and then just a little air through the fluid path and POP! Might take a little evening-up in terms of making sure both pistons per side come out, but you can do that by holding the more eager one in the caliper half while the lazy one inches out.
Any luck with Formula with that method? Is it specifically a no-no? Advantage is that no tools touch the pistons at all.
