Default Is Synthetic Brake fluid OK to use??

I have a 1995 Accord EX and a 1993 Civic EX. My mechaninc says to put
Valvoline synthetic brake fluid in both cars and the clutch. I live
inFairbanks Alaska and the winters get down to -40 for several months at a
time.
The bottle says, Valvoline synpower synthetic formula brake fluid for ABS
brakes, exceeds DOT 3&4, compatible with conventional brake fluids.....

The accord has ABS and an automatic transmission.

THe civic has standard brakes and a manual transmission with a hydralic
clutch....

Will this fluid mess up the system??? The local Honda dealer is no help...
