We use DOT 5 in many postal vehicle with no problems.A lot of myth's about DOT 5 are just that.I could go on about those,but I've got better things to do.It's very good stuff to use,and won't harm paint.It is expensive.

As a alternative,Valvoline's SynPower brake fluid is excellent fluid to use and has a high boiling point.I use it in my race car as Wilwood said not to use the DOT 5.I do use DOT5 in my Road Runner(OE drum brakes) with excellent results.
