Shot/Bead Blasting Calipers

Best to leave the pistons in? or remove them?

i.e is there a chance that its still going to get down the bore anyway, so best to remove them and clean them throughly once blasted.

Cheers

Ryan

Deffo remove them first Ryan, along with seals, bleed nipples & anything else that you can remove

Thoroughly clean them afterwards
