This is the nastiest $hit there is short of aviation hydraulic oil. When in corp, my hands where as perfect as could be, now they're absolutely horrid thanks to this stuff - thorough cleaning and lots of hand balm will help. As others have stated get this stuff off any painted surface as it eats paint - best way is thorough dousing with water repeatedly prior to using anything to wipe down. Damm, I hate freakin' brakes....
