Default Royal Purple Sythetic Steering Fluid

After last year when fully synthetic power steering fluid wasn't to be found anywhere, I was happy to see fully synthetic RP power steering fluid stocked and being carried by Schuck's/O'Reilly's.

Anyone had any experiences with it? I have only used their engine oil, and I had good experiences with it?

I use Vavoline's synthetic p/s fluid for my steering and ACE, it holds up a lot long longer then regular fluid, especially for the ACE.
Haven't tried the Royal Purple version yet.

I have had a horrible time finding the Valvoline synthetic, and I think I remember hearing they weren't producing anymore, so we are left with what's on the shelves... not sure if that's true or not...

I sell RP to commercial fleets, so I am biased. I tried the oil back in 1991 and was sold. I have used all of their products between all of my vehicles and have been very pleased with the results. It makes it a lot easier to sell when you know what you are selling works.

I have also converted my oil, tranny fluid, differential fluids, power steering and transfer case over to RP and am extremely pleased

Flushed my P/S and ACE with RP. Works great.

I heard Valvoline stopped supplying synthetic P/S fluid over a year ago, havn't seen any since in my neck of the woods.
