    I have cylinder kits for all of my brake cylinders and the bores look good after honing. However the kits did not come with the little shots of lube for the rubber cups and I really like to use that. I have used brake fluid instead, but I am wondering if anyone knows that that lube is and how could get some.

    I always try to keep things dry due to collecting brake dust. JMHO

    I wouldn't use anything but brake fluid to lube any internal part of the hydraulic system....
