is does affect some rubber compounds differently.
Silicone does not provide as firm of a brake peddle as
regular fluid. It is characterized as being "spongey".
The good news is it does not attack paint. I use it in my TR6
but switched over after a complete brake system overhaul.
I am under the impression that to switch one does need to do
a certain amount of cleaning out the old.
I will look up the source of some articles as well.
