This guide will walk you though completely striping down the callipers, cleaning, painting and rebuilding.
Step 1. Get your mk3 brake callipers, they should look like this:
Step 2. Undo the two calliper slider bolts:
Step 3. This will enable the brake pad carrier to split from the brake calliper like so:
Step 4. Now if you look at the brake pad carrier you have two threaded bars that are held in place by a rubber boot:
Step 5. Once pulled out they should look like below, note they are not the same, one has a rubber seal and the other is normal:
Step 6. Note the one with the rubber seal is the opposite side from the bleed nipple:
Step 7. Remove the two rubber boots, just pull them off, and with a flat blade screwdriver pick the rubber seal off the bar like so:
Step 8. Now that's the carrier done, now to the brake calliper its self
Step 9. Now we need to remove the piston from the brake calliper, you can try to remove it buy hand but this is very very hard! The best way is to use air to force the piston out, the first job is to place a thick rag to block the front of the calliper, and the reason for this is when you use air to remove the piston it will come out with some force!
Step 10. Place an air in the hole where your brake pipe will screw in to like so:
