I have used Lone Star exclusively for 30+ years, and never a problem. I'm currently restoring a 1969 350/350 A/C Corvette Roadster and a 1976 Corvette Coupe and received exchange Calipers for both projects. Everything looks as it should. The kicker is there was a note inside all calipers that if anything other that Dot 3 brake fluid was used, the warranty is VOID.

Back in the late 1980's all we ever used was Dot 5 silicone brake fluid because it would never stain the paint. But that was then, and this is now. Bill
