I used about 2 liters of brake fluid. About 500ml in the pressure bleeder went to waste. It’s cheap enough when buying the $63 12 pack 500ml of Liquid Moly DOT 4 fluid. Brakes firmer than ever.

Tip: don’t open your bleeder valves too much, you’ll get some bubbles but it doesn’t matter when there’s 15 PSI coming down the brake lines.

Great to hear you got it done.
That sure looks like it was needed!
