Hi, Jeff.

Make sure you use "methylted spirits" (known on this side of the pond
as denatured alcohol) rather than "mineral spirits" as I think I saw
in an earlier posting.  You will find the mineral spirits as
destructive as any other petroleum product on the non-metallic brake
components (hoses, seals, ...)  Pure methanol is probably OK too, but
it does need to be an alcohol, not an oil substance.

Donald.
