Will brake fluid cause damage if you use it as power steering fluid?

YES! Brake fluid is pretty nasty stuff. It'll eat up paint, if spilled, etc. I'd leave it to the brake reservoir only. HOWEVER, you CAN substitute Automatic Transmission Fluid for power steering fluid. Top off if in an emergency if you need to, but if you're gonna use ATF permanently, I'd flush out the power steering system first and refill with ATF so they dont mix...

Why is anti-freeze added to car windscreen wash?

You do not want your windshield washer fluid to become solid in temperatures below freezing, because this could damage your washers and prevent them from working. You should not, however, use engine coolant/antifreeze in your washer fluid, because it is toxic and can damage your paint. Commercial washer fluids contain a weaker antifreeze that is much less toxic and unlikely to damage your paint.


Will paint thinner hurt a car finish?

The thinner, if used too much, could affect the finish of the paint sprayed on the car - maybe looking matt rather than gloss. It is best to follow the paint manufacturer's instructions - especially if the car you are spraying is for a customer, not yours!
