Brand is not important, specification is. Look for DOT4

DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 are both Polyethylene-Glycol based and either can safely be used.
Do not use DOT 5 as that is Silicone based and is not compatible with DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 |

If dot4 and dot5.1 are the same? Why have they got different numbers? Surely the spec is different?
