I also bought some Krytox 205 to use as assembly lube, on recommendation from some friends. Ran a quick experiment to test it out. Popped a piston out and then reinstalled with just brake fluid. Needed to use a good chunk of my body weight to get it in. Then cleaned up piston and bore and coated in Krytox. Was able to get the piston in by just pinching the caliper with my thumb and index. Crazy how much of a difference it made.
Good to know that this was installer error and not an issue with the seals. And as I said before, good lesson to learn.
