it not normally the pistons that stick but more the slider system that allows the caliper to move in & out.............
check this as it doesn't take much to cause problems

I ended up buying replacement slide pins when I had 2 pots. They only cost about a fiver each and just screw into the back of the caliper. The old ones can be a pain to get out though.
