Just the messenger here. I was asked to post this.

ALL brake fluid, Motul, AP Racing, Brembo, Galffer, EBC Brakes, Wilwood, Stoptech and many many more literally 98% of all performance brake fluids are produced by a 3rd party vendor. In the case of the fluids listed about ALL are EXACTLY the same brake fluid from a company called "Orthene Chemical" (http://www.orthene.com/) Many of them even come is the same bottle with just a different color.
Yes, RT700 is blended by a USA based 3rd party vendor, who happens to be the #1 manufacturer and OEM supplier of brake fluid in the WORLD. RT700 is full produced, bottled, in the USA. Even the labels and cartons, helmet visor strips, banners, etc are all produced in the USA. With rare exception by other small private businness' like Torque. I've never attempted to mislead anyone to that fact. And all my dealers are completely aware of that.
FWIW, there are only few (like < 5) true producers of brake fluid of any kind in the world. Torque is fortunate to have developed and maintained a relationship with our fluid supplier for about 15 years.
All that said, RT700 IS NOT the same as RS683. Gene doesn't know the first thing about brake fluid. While it has been my exclusive focus for almost 15 years. I would suggest (yes, just my personal opinion. And not attempting to disrespect Gene, just stating facts) you take anything Gene says about brake fluid with a heavy duty grain of salt.
