Default Brake Flush

I will be changing my brakes and rotors pretty soon, and I want to do a brake flush as well. I tried searching for a write up everywhere with no results. Can anybody please instruct me in doing this along with bleeding the system after the flush.

By the way I have a 95 Del Sol Si, and considering it is a DD, is OEM brake fluid fine? I see a lot of people with DDs still use Motul RBF dot 4.

Thanks in advanced for any help.

hey man where u located at? as i can help u or do it for u if u want for a good deal $$$. let me know as im in anaheim california. if anything perform ur brake service first and then do the brake flush. note: measure ur rotors w/ a micrometer to actually make sure they do need replacement as u can just resurface them and u'll be good to go like new and after its all said & done (including brake bleed) ur brake pedal should be high, hard, & firm like mines!!! ha ha but true that. and about OEM brake fluid is PERFECT for daily driving (DOT 3 HONDA) and dont waste ur money if anything pm for any advice. hopes this helps.

and another thing make sure ur brake pad set comes with all hardware (shims & lubricant) as u dont want them 2 be squealing or noisy so apply the brake anti-squeal lube moderately on the back of the pads & shims, again let me know wasup...

I'm located in Florida so it won't work out, but I am just looking for a write up or explanation on how to perform a brake flush, I got the rest covered.
