If you get a can of brake cleaner ,after you have took pads out take off caliphers give the brake lever a squeeze just so the pistons are out a little more then give it all a good clean light scrub with a tooth brush plenty of spray then wash off push pistons back in then all back together, job done ,

I did mine very easy as nightrider said toothbrush and plenty of cleaner I used the aerosol type you would be amazed how much muck comes of the pistons make sure your order enough pads for the front not like me forget to double up and had to reorder  :mfr_lol:.
