You don't want to mix brands of brake fluid. If your MC is low, bleed the entire system with fresh fluid. It will make a nice difference in pedal feel. The most accessible (and not that bad) brand of brake fluid is Valvoline Synthetic DOT4. This is sold at AutoZone; many people recommend it for auto-x/track use, so street use is fine too.
