As for method, I highly recommend the motive device. Assuming you're just doing this for preventive maintenance, chances of getting air in the master is unlikely. Maybe the trick is to pump the pedal several times then use the motive device?

As far as the fluid on the pads it doesn't get on them and the calipers are power coated not paint so there are obviously no issues with it.
