I got this race face crank set, I need to remove it, but when I press with all strenght the 8mm bolt inside the 10mm on it just starts to push out from crank, any advice?

That’s a self-extracting bolt. That’s how it works. The bolt presses against the end cap, which in turn pushes the crank off the spindle.
If the outer 10mm cap has failed, you’ll need to get it out of there (somehow), then remove the 8mm bolt, then use a conventional crank puller to pull the crank off the spindle.
