Yeah, that's the general concensus. I put the DOT 5 in today. LOTS of leaks. ALL fixed pretty quickly and the system is really going to be clean. The only problem I ran into was one of the banjo bolts (front) didn't seat and stripped under my delicate supervision, so I had to order another bolt. Once its here, I can complete the bleeding process and GTG!

Had I used DOT 3 I would be crying right now since there were many leaks and the paint is ruined on contact. Its a no brainer when you are putting months and months into a paint job. Thankfully, I knew this and acted accordingly.
