lards advice is sound.. red grease as supplied by kelgate should be used. smear it on the seal before insertion and just a fine smear of it in the seals aperture .. NOT silicon grease or any other type for that matter. piston return distances are often varied as kelgate fits an "o" ring on a "K" caliper, and a wedge shaped seal on a "GTK" caliper. as others have said, the piston should only pull back a small distance to clear the disc. take a look at this link to identify your system .
