Technical Caliper dust seal removal

[Seamus2012]

Seicento 2002

I am rebuilding the calipers on the front since one has seized. I have had a search through but cannot find the answer to this.

I have got the piston out but cannot get the dust seal off the caliper. I expected it to just sit in the groove but now wonder if it is held in by a spring clip of sorts but can't see any evidence of that.

Could someone confirm please.

Sorted.

For anyone else the dust seal is bonded to a metal ring. Very unlikely to come out clean. Find the edge of the ring which is very thin and collapse it inwards. Best carried out on the bench.
