Default Clutch Fluid

I was wondering about this. Now i know that clutch fluid is exactly the same as brake fluid, and you need to run a fluid that has a really high boiling point, such as DOT4. But does anyone run ATE Super Blue for their clutch fluid? Doesnt that have a higher boiling point than DOT4 fluid? Anyway i was just wondering. Thanks

The problem with ATE Super Blue for the clutch is that its very dark color obscures the color change in the fluid that tell you when it is degraded.

If you like ATE try their Type 200, same fluid as Blue but 200 is amber in color.
