Well...
I don't think he is pulling your leg, David...
rather, I think there is a misunderstanding.
Moisture in brake fluid is, as far as I know, a bad thing in any event.
Non-silicone fluids hold moisture in suspension whereas the silicone
stuff
does not. So, you could say silicone,
by allowing the moisture to puddle at
system low points (like the calipers wherein the moisture can cause
corrosion!) keeps the moisture "away"
from the rubber seals?
Which one is worse when it comes to
corrosion, is anyone's guess insofar as
your's truly has no idea!! Loods like your
damned if you do, damned if you don't
in any event....just damned differently! :)
One thing is for sure...neither can do
much damage if both are renewed at
regular intervals. In each case, preventative maintenance is the word(s)
in this respect. I think every two years
is the "recommended"?
