Will any compressor do?

I have one of those air compressors that attaches to the cigarette lighter port. That's all I have access to...
I don't want to get the pistons out using the brake pedal. I fear it'll be far too messy. I'd rather remove the caliper entirely and then blow air.
What kind of rubber fitting can I get? Does it require lots of air to get them out? I have a spare tire valve that I can hook up to the end of the compressor tube. Will holding that in place as the air is coming out be enough to dislodge it?
Thanks for the photo!
