Why do you want to use silicone brake fluid? It's performance is inferior to the real thing. The only reason I can think of for using it is if you can't be bothered to do the periodic maintenance recommended by the manufacturer. Personally I prefer to have a proper look at my brakes once a year.

As far as I know no car manufacturer uses silicone brake fluid, nor are the seals specced for it. Why don't you ask Wagner Technical for their advice, if you do let us know what they say.

Regards


Pete
