Disposing of old brake fluid


Zed Head

Recommended Posts


I didn't watch the video, but I am guilty of hoarding old brake fluid in various containers, and recycle that stuff when I visit the track. If there is no dedicated 'brake fluid only' it goes in with used oil container.

He spilled a bunch on his paint.  Wonder if he'll show the result.

Actually brake fluid is an organic chemical.  It absorbs water but it's not "water-based" like some paints.  It will attack paint but it's not abrasive.  It is flammable, but probably less so than diesel fluid.  So it probably did end up in the catalytic converter.
