Good tip. Another idea is to just roll up some paper towels and put them in the fill hole of the master. I had to do this on my sister-in-law's Hyundai when I did the brakes. I added fluid a week before because the pads were really low and the light was coming on in the dash. Once I compressed the calipers to put the new pads on, the fluid level came up and I just soaked it up with the towels.
