Yes
The brake fluid can damage paint surface's, and also be harmful to your eyes..
If the brake fluid reservoir is overfilled, the excess fluid runs through the overflow instead of over the bodywork, which would cause damage to the paint work.
Engine lubrication oil will naot damage factory enamel paint finishes. However, it may damage aftermarket lacquer finishes. Also, brake fluid is corrosive to most paint finishes.
it would be easier to use new brake fluid that doesnt trash paint. older brake fluid that trashes paint was made from vegetablr oils, newer fluids are synthetic and have not been detrimental to paint in years,unless you have really crappy paint to start with
if your brake fluid is low, you probably need to replace your brake pads. If your pads are good and you fluid is low, you have a leak somewhere. By replacing your pads, the brake fluid level will rise to the proper level. If you add fluid now, then replace your pads, brake fluid will leak out the top of your fluid reservoir and most likely eat the paint off what ever it spills on. Brake fluid and car paint DO NOT MIX.
To remove paint you must use thinner.
You need to have the brake fluid changed immediately. Washer fluid will damage all of the seals in the brake system
Yes, adding brake fund to a P/S system can cause damage.
Yes it damaged paint on my fishing reels
brake fluid reservoir has a, "fill to line". If hard to see it can be filled to jjust below base of filler neck, ( it will be slightly over filled) but not a problem. If you add too much, it can over flow when you cap/level sensor on. Brake fluid will damage the paint if it isn't cleaned up.
There is no substitute available that can be used for brake fluid. Using anything other than brake fluid could be dangerous and would likely cause damage.
