Bleeding brakes is one of those jobs that the thought of doing it far outweighs the actual job itself.

Tools I use, quality ring spanner for the nipples 8mm , decent length of snug fitting (fish tank) pipe to fasten the nipple to a plastic pop bottle (leave the top on & tape a brick to the bottom of the bottle so it can't fall over). Stab a screwdriver into the (bottle) so that I can snugly push the pipe into, so if it does fall over I won't be sitting in a pool of oil whilst bleeding the brakes

Treat brake fluid like sulphuric acid, because it is to paintwork.

Pump the leaver slowly, too fast as oil can spurt in the air from the master & onto the screen

The key to bleeding brakes is preparation & patience, it isn't difficult, all your doing is getting air bubbles from a pipe

1. Always prepare for the worst, cover the whole area around the master cylinder with towels/cloths.

2. Always have a hot/warm bucket & rag of strong washing up liquid solution at hand, ready to use to wash down any brake fluid drips.

3. If your lucky/good still give the whole area a thorough washing down afterwards. If you don't need it, use it to wash the dog

4. Don't set a time scale, do it over a weekend if you feel the need. Don't pressure yourself, the only pressure should be in the leaver

As Varastorm said, it takes time. To a point that I had to call the guru when bleeding my clutch, to give me confidence that I wasn't doing anything wrong, its was taking so long and with such a small reservoir. But with Tony's wise words ringing in my ears, another 20 or so minutes, it was all fine.

Sometimes you need someone on the other end or a phone or computer, that you trust do give you the confidence that you are going in the right direction, and it will all come good in the end.
