I use the valvoline stuff at autozone. Its in the greyish silver bottle. 
Its always there and priced competitively.
If you want something a little better like ATE superblue you will probably have to mailorder it or special order it from you shop.

Re: brake fluid (undercoversi)
Ok I a hydraulic mech and you are just wasting your money buying top of the line fluid. Dot 3 or 4 is fine for normal driving. The biggest cause of fluid going bad is old age. Your service manual has the proper time change requirements. Liquids are incompressible and that is the bottom line. Water would even work in a emergency. Save your money.

Your nuts.
DOT 3, 4 and 5.1 systems are incompatible with DOT 5 fluid.
