Are both sides (Pads) of each caliper touching the disk?

If you still have a sticky piston one side can operate
first. It pushes the disk over slightly then when you
release the lever the disk pushes the pistons back.

If so either stripm down again or try wedging something
between the sticky side and the disk until its bled.
