Can brake fluid damage paint on a car?
Yes
Where do you put brake fluid on 1999 Saab 9.5?
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.

Where do you put brake fluid in on a 1998 dodge grand caravan?
The reservoir is located on the driver's side rear of the engine compartment below the wiper boat assembly. Be sure to clean the cap before removing it and use the correct type of brake fluid as indicated on the cap. Normally, as the brake linings wear the fluid level in the reservoir drops. The level should not go so low as to affect functioning of the brakes or turn on a warning indicator lamp. When the linings are replaced, unless fluid is removed from the system, the fluid will rise to its previous level. If additional fluid had been added to the reservoir, it may overflow and spill brake fluid out. If not immediately cleaned off, brake fluid can damage paint, metal, plastic, and wiring. Keep in mind that if you have a low brake fluid level you should check for worn brake linings or fluid leaks. Excessively worn linings or leaking brake fluid can lead to brake failure if not corrected.
What does the Mercedes 190 brake reservoir overflow do?
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.
Does brake fluid make good lube?
Not for motor vehicles, use the correct oil. If brake fluid can burn paint off bodywork I don't think it would be good using it as a lube.
Has anybody developed a brake fluid that does not destroy paint?
silicone brake fluid, I think it is dot 6 or something like that, you have to remove all of the old fluid first, can't mix at all.. but that will have less brake fade and higher bubbling temps. they use it in race cars.
Do I need to use specific brake caliper paint?
For great results, you should always use a paint specific to the application. There are several brands that manufacture paint specifically for brake calipers, that are resistant to the high heat and the affects of brake fluid. They are available at most automotive parts stores, in a variety of colors and application methods.
Could Gasoline or transmission fluid clean oxidized paint job?
Gasoline or Transmission Fluid will clean the paint right OFF your car, that is, it will TAKE THE PAINT OFF. Do NOT use Gasoline, Transmission Fluid, Brake Fluid, or in fact, any sort of harsh solvent, as this will strip the paint, whether or not it's oxidized. I would recommend taking it to a body shop or someone who knows body work.
