Ive used a greasegun in the past, IIRC I removed the flexi from the gun and the brake hose screwed straight in. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

airline as an absolute last resort, as its pretty easy to loose fingers lol i always fit to a car, bleed and pump them out, nice and controlled, and will get all 4 pistons of a 4-pot caliper out enough to get a grip on the lip with mole's turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)
