COngratulations on purchasing a Sonett!! I presently have two- a '73 and a '74.
Castrol Girling Red Rubber Grease is a castor-lime based lubricant formulated for hydraulic braking systems to allow free movement of the seals, ease assembly, and prevent water ingress. Coat the seals and smear a little on the piston before reassembly.
A couple of years ago, I rebuilt the entire brake system on my '74- sleeved the master, new front pistons and seals, new rotors, pads, new rear cylinders, shoes, hardware and stainless lines. Worst part was the removal and replacement of the master. It was voted the worst job on a Sonett III! I cut an access hole in the driver's wheelwell to gain better access. Not stock, but makes the job easier.
Use Castrol LMA brake fluid!!
