Lesson learnt when blowing pistons out with compressed air

1. One will always come out like a rocket, the other wont. Luckily I had my palm over the pistons, good job I didn't have a piano recital that night

2. Wear glasses because when the rocket takes off the residual brake fluid sprays all over the place.

3. Wrapping the caliper in an old towel prevents all this.

All came up very well and looking very nice inside. One small 30mm piston has a slight nick in it so may need replacing.

Wheel and calipers back on, just need to bleed them.
