Hi Konali! Yes rubbing alcohol. (You say tomato I say tomAto!)
Best procedure is to use one of those pressure brake bleeders that runs off your spare wheel pressure. Fill the refil bottle with the alcohol then connect it up. Then bleed the brakes in the normal sequence.(I usually start at the back right wheel and work clockwise on Hondas). Carry out this procedure until you have used 2 refill bottles full (about a litre/2 pints) Then fill the refill bottle up with your new brake fluid and bleed through until you have no bubbles. Easy! I have carried out this procedure many times and not had any bother. My own car has completed 40,000 miles since I changed its fluid. The alcohol only dries out the rubber if it is left to dry. If you have the system filled with the alcohol then brake fluid it wont get the chance to dry out. Hope this helps.
