I split the calipers in half and glass bead blast cleaned them making sure I didn't blast toward the piston side of the caliper. I cleaned the caliper halves with compressed air and brake cleaner then reassembled the halfs. Then I cleaned them again with brake cleaner and painted them with caliper paint from Pelican.
There was not very much dirt in the piston bores, so I just wiped them out with a rag and brake cleaner. For the pistons, I very carefully scrapped them using new razor blades, then I wiped them with brake cleaner. The pistons were in very good shape for a 24 year old car. I was not to thrilled about the price of the dust seals either.
