DOT3 brake fluid won't corrode this? What cannot be used with?

I think you can use any fluid. The box doesn't say anything about what kind of fluid you can use or can't use. I used it with gear oil.

No it will be ok . I used my pump for dextron 6. Solvents like alcohol acetone and brake cleaner will in time eat at the seals inside. Very good tool very happy with it .,...

I put used motor oil in mine to spray my vehicles, Fluid Film should work just fine in it.

You need to call the dealership and ask them. These questions are hard to answer as most automakers these days like to have their own brand of fluids with their own additives so you have to buy it from them. They make their transmissions/power steering pumps/etc so that if the fluid doesn't contain the right stuff, it will break. Also you might try calling Royal Purple and asking them. They'd likely be able to answer your question. I can say this though. Anything Royal Purple makes is going to be far better than anyone else, as long as it meets the manufacturers requirements. There are only two other brands greater than royal purple, AMSoil and Redline. Redline being the best of the best but they're expensive.

Most of the time, it is acceptable to mix one DOT 4 fluid with another. This, though, should be done only at need and is not generally a good practice. In this case, I would not do it at all. Type 200 is a normal viscosity DOT 4 brake fluid while SL.6 is a low viscosity brake fluid. Some manufacturer's require a low viscosity fluid and in some cars, the ABS system may perform better with a lower viscosity fluid. I would not recommend mixing two different viscosities together. You would be better off running 2 liters of SL.6 through your system which will effectively purge out the Type 200 and ensure fresh, air bubble free fluid in your braking system if switching to a low viscosity fluid is your plan.

Yes. I used it in all parts when reforming my front brakes and it works perfectly. Really great grease because it's compliant with rubber boots.

I have not used it for that application, buy I would think that it would work well at removing any corrosion if it exists. It can't hurt in any case. I've been using DeOxit for many tears and have found that it works wonders on any and all electrical contacts. One area that people forget are the various ground straps or cables they have in the engine compartment. Disconnect them and clean well with De-Oxit and replace tightly. I've seen cleaning the grounds fix some strange electrical problems.

It smells just like regular WD-40 (kind of clean oil smell) and it would probably work just great on a squeaky brake pedal. Use a rag on the floor to keep the drips from making a mess. I can't even think of a job this stuff couldn't handle.

I can't see why not. It is an excellent oil. Sure works well in my Sportster transmission/chaincase/clutch. It's yellow metal safe, too. Not for synchros in an automobile transmission.

Yes absolutely! This is what I use on my brakes. Factory slide pin lubricant is silcone so as not to degrade the rubber boots and seals, as well as provide resistance to water.

I just put a couple of wraps of Teflon tape on the threads and it never leaked a drop. Just be sure to stay back two threads from the beginning so none of tape gets into the brake line system.

If your vehicle is under warranty and having issues i'd just take it to the dealer. It is normal for manuals to list additives as not recommended, doesn't mean that they'll hurt it, just covers the manf. With that said, with how little a tube makes up of the total capacity of tranny fluid, I highly doubt they'd be able to tell.

Not sure. You may want to contact Redline for that. All I know is car enthusiast swear by Red Line and Amsoil for transmission fluid.

I haven't noticed it on mine; there's a possibility some brake fluid splashed up on the pump. Brake fluid is an excellent solvent, so if that happened, there's your problem. Also, it's not outside the realm of possibility the company put a little too much grease on your pump when they were making it.

If this doesn't, then there is probably nothing else out there that would and still be safe to use. This is good stuff, though you'll likely need to use an electric buffer to get a better finish.

You don't want to use this for brake jobs. You want something that doesn't release oil at higher temperatures. Any auto parts store should carry brake caliper grease at a similar $8-13 pricepoint. It's much tackier and almost sticky. Just the right thing for something that isn't truly sealed. My caliper pins on my crown victoria are only sealed by a plug, of sorts. It's certainly not airtight or water tight. Thus the tacky caliper grease repels the water and stays in place well. Not to say you absolutely couldn't use it, but if there's any chance that the oil will seep and get onto the brake pads/rotors, you absolutely do not want to use this!

ONLY use air tool oil, not something like 3in1, etc. Regular oil might "diesel", air oil will not.

Folks please be careful using this anti-seize lubricant. Many brake caliper parts including the caliper mounts, require a thread lock compound such as Loctite. This anti-seize "lubricant" is not a substitute. Please use extreme caution!!
