I have used a grease gun to free up stuck brake wheel cylinder pistons too. Install a zerk fitting into the inlet of the wheel cylinder, place the wheel cylinder in a vice to cap both ends, and pump away. If one piston breaks free before the other, the vice keeps it in the wheel cylinder until the other piston breaks free. It's very important to clean every trace of grease out of the wheel cylinder afterwards. I've done this with disk brake calipers too.
