I beg to differ in the performance of the break. Once you start getting dust and dirt on the piston you are going to be out a new caliper. You will score the Piston and get debris in your brake system. I would push the piston out, pull the boot over the piston and re-seat the boot. Also how are you compressing the pistons? It could be your technique that is causing it to fold incorrectly.
