Fluid still leaks around the threads when the bleeder screw is loose that's why I spray water on the calipers when I'm finished to neutralize the brake fluid which runs off with water with no damage done to the powder coating.

It's alot less mess then using no hoses at all. :D

Your right but you still need the water to neutralize the brake fluid.:tiphat:

so i guess the question is kinda like this...

do you prefer to wash your car using a garbage can as a wash bucket, or prefer to wash your car with a nice griot's wash bucket with gritguard built-in, and casters, along with all the coolness?

bascially the same results, only difference is in the overall experience.
