Default Caliper piston stuck in the bore?

Hi guys,
I have just blown out my caliper pistons with the compressor as I am going to rebuild them. Unfortunately they are still stuck and sitting half way out of their bores Any ideas (sensible) on how to remove them?
Cheers Greg

put a pile of rags in the calipers, and give it hell with the air tip. the rags will cushon the piston from popping out. and maybe try pushing them back on and starting over.
