rear pistons screw into calipers, they don't compress like normal calipers do. C clamp would have caused the same problem. You can grip the edge with a pipe wrench or channel locks but they make a special tool that makes it a little easier. Sorry to hear it was such an expensive lesson - I usually hope my mistakes are under $100
