Question Does it matter which DOT4 brake fluid I use in my 126?

I'm going to be changing my '89 420SEL's brake fluid in the next few weeks and am curious as to whether it makes much difference which DOT4-rated fluid I use. I picked-up a quart of Valvoline's SynPower fluid at the local AutoZone last weekend, but thought I'd check with you guys before I used it...

(I understand that dry and wet boiling points vary from brand to brand, but am I correct in assuming that as long as the product meets the DOT4 standard, it'll do the trick--assuming typical local and highway driving?)

Thanks, as always, for sharing any insights.
