No thanks man, i'm just checking my options for next spring. At $25-$30 dollars a can then i'll just buy up here. I paid 59 with tax for a can of ATE super blue.
I didn't do my homework on it because really I wanted to get the job done now and it was available. Next time i'll be more choosy.

Yes, if you drive like a granny 
When driving at the track, DOT 4 won't cut it, particularly in the first few years of that kind of driving, while you still brake a lot. I used to get horrible brake fade at the track, because my fluid was boiling. It's probably less of an issue with more modern cars, with bigger, more powerful brakes.

That was my understanding as well, same stuff different colour.
Like I said, it was all I could find at time. I bought it from Alex (Harmony Rd Porsche). He's one of our club techs.

Hey Guys!
How's everyone doing?
Can you buy a bleeder in the GTA?
The blue has gone up a little, but I still get it for 1/2 of that price.

The black label model allows you to turn the cap by itself, whereas the regular model you have to turn the cap and the bottle together.
