[TR] Brake Fluid?

[Dave]

been using silicon numerous years on numerous cars.  doesn't absorb water 
(is not hygroscopic) and doesn't mess with paint.  gotta be a little more 
careful when filling and bleeding (use speed bleeders!!).  I don't know why 
anyone would use dot 3/4 and risk paint damage and have to bleed every year 
or two.

I bought a master a couple years ago and saw that warning.  talked to a 
contact at moss, and he said the problem was that people were not full 
cleaning out their brake systems, mixing dot 3/4/5 and getting into trouble. 
so that's why the disclaimer/warranty issue.  he said there is no reason 
whatsoever not to use silicone on the new brake cylinders.
