Unfortunately, it's only purple in the bottle. The purple dye turns out to be
more soluble in DoT-3 & 4, so much of it is lost in the flushing, and the
purple that remains disappears after about 6 months.
The DoT-5 specs only require it to be purple in the bottle, so the dye must
be something that evaporates.
