1995 Acura Integra

im trying to replace the rear brakes on my integra and I cant get the caliper pistons to compress with either a c-clamp or section locks. But the pistons do extend when brake is applied. Am I missing something?

The caliper piston could be binding during the return stroke due to corrosion

Special tool is needed to turn and push the piston back in
If try to just push It will not go in have to turn and push in
Check with your local part store if have the caliper tool
