I recently did a front brake rebuild (new stainless steel pistons, seals and boots). I put in all fresh fluid, using DOT3, then read in the fine print on the bottle "High Temperature Synthetic". I've always shied away from synthetic brake fluid, believing it is incompatible with conventional fluid. But after looking I find synthetic is practically the only stuff on the shelf. I've not had any problems, but since the entire system was drained and refilled, maybe it's ok.
So, what's the deal? Has synthetic changed? Is is compatible now?
