mixing brake fluid

[rocco16 at sbcglobal.net (Larry Fry)]

I don't know if you can mix it, but for $6 I sure wouldn't take the risk.
They long-held rule is to always buy new brake fluid.  While this is 
certainly playing it safe, my belief is that a quickly re-sealed can should 
be just as safe as a new can.

   i needed brake fluid a little while ago and bought some prestone
synthetic dot 3 out of haste. i recently, without checking what i had,
bought some castol gtlma due to the higher boiling points. only thing is
that the castrol doesn't say synthetic on it. ideas on if i will have a
problem? car in question is simply a lowly '85 8v. thanx.
