Yeah I was thinking of just doing the dust boots, greasing exposed pistons and then the normal fluid flush.

I guess more to get more technical how would i go about removing those boots without having the piston out? will it be straightforward?

Can I clean the tops and protruding portion of pistons ( including where the dust boots are) with brake cleaner?
Then lightly coat everything with high temp silacone/ceramic grease
This is what I have- http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/c...ntent=10889812

I just dont want to screw up my brakes without having the spare components for replacement...
