How should i go about disposing of the brake fluid that i used to strip the paint off of my ITR

or is that a bad idea?

Sneak into town, late at night, wearing all black. Park next to a sewer vent, get out, and pour... j/k any auto place should be able to tell you what to do with it, if not handle it themselves.

Re: disposing of brake fluid?

Contact your local fire department for disposal locations.

DO NOT PUT IT IN THE SEWER.

DO NOT MIX IT WITH OTHER CHEMICALS.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO IGNITE IT.

ill try the autozone or Napa or some thing


my dad usually disposes of the oil, in unsafe manners, and since i ahve no control over what he does, but i do have control over my actions, and i dont want to fuck up local environments

tho i do kno that the local landfill has a big oil drum for used oil, i dont think theyd take break fluid

Thank you Joey for being more responsible than some by realizing people might try the stupid suggestions stated above referring to sniffing, etc. No offense to anyone but remember somebody out there might actually follow the advice you never intended to have anyone follow. Be responsible.
