DOT 4 Non OEM fluid for my clutch?

My clutch fluid is dirty and I want to bleed it. All I have is valvoline ( I think ) DOT 4. Will I be ok? I really prefer OEM if at all possible...

I have Motul RBF600 (DOT 4) in my clutch system. It is completely unnecessary, but works fine.

any dot 3/4 fluid will work. oem fluid is actually inferior to your valvoline stuff.

Any brand DOT3/4 will be fine. However, you can't mix DOT3/4 with DOT5
