Caliper rebuild

This is why my calipers were sticking what the best way to remove the piston lock ring? When I apply compressed air into the inlet only one piston flies out

With use of a c-clamp I would do one piston at a time. Reseal the one that came out, put a clamp on it then pop the other one out.

Search the brake section as well as the 1LE section for caliper rebuilding as there are many threads on it. Good luck - you have quite a mess to handle.

Looks like you may have some brake fluid contamination as well. I'd flush the entire system. Betting that the seals in the master cylinder don't look much better.
