Question Materials/Tools for pad swap?

I'm going to be installing new Porterfield carbon-kevlar pads this weekend and painting my calipers (either white or black...haven't decided yet) and I wanted to check on what I will need.

I've got some of the anti-squeek grease stuff, and some normal tools... anything special? any small clips or anything brake specific not included with the pads?

Thanks

Only thing I've found helpful is a screw clamp of some sort to force the cyclinders back to accomodate the new pads. In a pinch I have used a long handled screwdriver and some leverage or a wood clamp.
