pkwdercoating brakes question I looked for an answer to this and could not find anythin on it. i am going to powdercoat my cts-v calipers for my f-body brake swap and i was wondering do i have to remove the brake pistons and the rubber gasket or can i just leave them retracted and just tape them? I was not sure if the rubber could go in the oven. I was thinking it might be ok because brake temps are pretty hot as well. any help i would appreciate.

So in order to disassemble them I need to use an air tool and pressurize them to push the pistons out? Then do the rubber seals just come out and are they reusable? I think these are rebuilt because they look freshly painted and everything looks like it was freshly painted and the seals look brand new.
