how damaging is brake fluid (on tires, wheels, body)
just like the title says
i got it all over the inside of my tire and on the wheel and some might have sprayed up to the underbody when my hard line in going to the rear right before the rubber center line busted a hole.
oh i got some on my dryiveway too, my dad diddnt like that
i diddnt have alot of time to clean it up becasue i was late to go somewhere and my friend picked me up. before i left i gave it a quick rinse with the hose but it still seems to be there.
so how bad is this stuff anyhow?
should i start panicing that my tire is going to disintegrate?

well it actually happened a couple days ago so im getting worried that i neglected to do a better job of cleaning it. i kinda just did a quick spray with the hose but when i looked at it after it dried it looks like a stain on the inner part of the wheel. the worst part is that it made a puddle that my wheel was sitting in
i tried to get the hose to flush away as much of that as possible but im afraid some will still be trapped, and my car isnt moving until i can get the brakes fixed which may not be for another month and becasue my driveway is on a slight incline i cant push it either.
