| pistons. There is a special tool for that (shown in pic) but you can use hand tools such as a big clamp or channel locks if you want, just don't score or damage the caliper pistons. I am guessing your car has been sitting? 
Anywho, I bet you will find one or more pistons that don't budge or take too much effort to compress. Then get new calipers or you can buy "rebuild" kits for the calipers. I have found by shopping around there is a HUGE variation in prices for calipers. For me, the easiest and cheapest thing to do (time and money) was to buy a fully "loaded" caliper (with pads) and swap it in. Good luck.
