I want to do a damper oil change on my forks and have plenty of Rockshox 3wt (Maxima RSF?) in the cupboard. According to the chart 

 it looks relatively similar to the Maxima RFF 5wt that is recommended, very slightly lower cSt @ 40c but more stable at temperature (higher cSt @100c).

Anyone tried it? I expect I wouldn't notice any real difference? Also, any idea how much oil the damper takes so I can double check I have enough beforehand!

Never mind - rechecked the garage and I only have enough 2.5WT in the cupboard for a fork so ordered the proper Maxima 5WT stuff anyway.
