Which bottle of Super Blue brake fluid? I am trying to buy some ATE super blue brake fluid but have found two different kinds.
One kind comes in a blue metal container and the website says it is ATE super blue but made by HRP.~$9
The other kind comes in a silver metal container and says ATE super blue made by ATE.~$11
To you guys who run/have run ATE super blue, which one is the right stuff or is there a difference?

Mine is ATE Superblue by ATE. The can is bluish/silver in color with a blue lid. There is also the ATE TYPE 200, same fluid, but brown in color (gold?) so you can tell when you bleed fresh fluid through (you'll see the color change from blue to gold and vice versa).

Super Blue and Type 200 is the same stuff, but one is dyed blue. No physical differences between the fluids, it's different colors on purpose for when you are flushing the systems.
I can't speak about what you are looking at from someone else, or how they are bottling things. I can tell you that I have ATE Super Blue and ATE Type 200, and there is no performance difference, only the dye. I keep lots of both in stock, so if anyone needs some--let me know.
