Bought some acf 50 at the bath & west show yesterday. I've heard lots of good reports about it . But some people are saying use it on the brake pistons and others are saying it will distort the seals.
Anyone have an opinion on this?
Thanks

I wouldn't use ACF50. It won't harm rubber seals but it will run out and probably contaminate your pads. Also its not really a lubricant, its a corrosion inhibitor.
Use hi-temp silicone grease or a specific hydraulic clutch and brake grease.
Opie Oils do one.
