I checked the Caltex web site (Australia, so you must be in the Pacific Rim). The proper Caltex number for power steering fluid is "PS 4634" hydraulic fluid.
But to make it easier, there are really only three types of fluid used in power steering pumps. The GM power steering fluid, Dextron III ATF, and Honda power steering fluid. The GM power steering fluid and Dextron III are very close, and Dextron III can be used if you can't find the former. The Honda fluid is mineral oil based, I have been told, and really is different from Dextron III and should not be mixed.
The Dextron III is red because of the dye they put in it, so that it can be identified if there is a leak. It's natural color would be the very light yellow of the PS fluid, otherwise.
Hope this helps.
