My method will not damage the piston as the worn pad is a buffer and turning the spanner will apply force evenly and squarely to the piston. Unless the piston is tilted already :-) I do not know the torque of the 2 bolts holding the caliper, I do not normally look at the spec unless it is engine related. A long breaking bar will always does the job as long as you use the right socket ( use 6 points rather than 12 points ). The issue is that you might not have enough leverage unless the car is on a lift. Jacking it up or on a small ramp limit the breaking bar travel.
