Easy But

Because these seals have become practically a regular replacement item for me on my 87, is there any method other than not using them at all that allows an 87 to protect the caliper piston ? I can toast my seals to crunchy bits in one track weekend at Carolina Motorsports Park, a very heavy braking circuit (for me). Probably go several seasons at most other tracks where you mostly "brush" the brakes to turn. Luckily they aren't too expensive to buy from our host, about an hour or so to remove/clean/replace front calipers with new seals.
