Most times a simple "C" clamp to push the piston in for the front calipers .
if its the rear , you may need to turn as you push in when the parking brake
is included in the caliper (rear only).
a set of lare adjustable pliers may work , if the pistons not metal , be careful
not to crack the piston.
