on these its easy with a lathe, there you can just let it spin while you put light pressure on it with either a piece of crank polishing strap or fine emory cloth
on the cylinders you need to use a dremal with a polishing bit

remember its just polishing not grinding or porting so if the cylinder / piston walls are mared or deeply groved your can be fooked. however if you polish them up you can sometimes make the lip smooth enough that it dosent bind.

oh and rebuilding is EASY! for one caliper there is 10 pieces total and there all big and cant be lost unless you go ape shit and throw the tray of parts across the room but out side of that you cant mess it up.

hardest part is removing the pistons at the same time. if you just take it off the knucke and pump the brakes one will come out first then you have to figure out how to grab the other one without gouging it.
i stuck a 1x1x1 piece of wood and stuck it in the there and then pumped the brakes then disconected the line and was able to pull them the rest of the way out.
