In the process of cleaning the pistons.
I just hope I can smooth them out from the pistons.

Spent extra time removing the rust from the seal lip/pocket.














Very interesting rust marking at one of the front smaller piston.
Brake fluid will convert the moisture into different formula in order to prevent internal corrosion of the parts so the rust must have passed the seal lip from outside.
It's almost like stained as it just doesn't want to come off.
I may need replacing this one......


















Similar story at the rear calipers.

The damages to the pistons were in better condition compared to the front side but still,
must spent extra time cleaning the caliper body lip/pocket area as fair amount of rust went inside especially at the RR side.




All OEM brake hoses were still in good shape with all fittings without the rust.




Hope I can start the reassembly from today.
