    Also what isn't covered is removal of all the gunge that sits on the floor of the reservior.

    To clean that I syringed all the fluid out out carefully and with a clean dry lint free cloth I remove every bit of residue and moisture from the bottom until spotlessly clean. If this isn't done a lot of recontamination will happen.

    Then refill the reserviour and contine with the procedure mentioned on the other link shown above.

    Don't forget brake fluid is a wild paint stripper!!
