how do i take off the calipers and pads off
With a big axe. :aj:
C’mon dude can you be any more sparse with the information? Type of bike? Front or rear?
More to the point why do you need to clean them?
Guess time: Your fork seals are leaking & the pads are contaminated.
Prognosis, not good, once the oil gets in them they may never work as well again.
If the pistons are seized then they will need to be pumped out a little & cleaned (warning don’t use solvents near the piston seals). Then gently pushed back in. If you are sensible you can use the correct size G clamp or wood work sash, but think before forcing.
If the disc is heavily worn the pads may need to be worked a bit before you get the calliper over the lip of the disc
