What's the Best Power Steering Fluid?

I've got to replace a leaking Power Steering Pressure Hose on my 1982 300SD. I figure this is a good time to change the filter and flush out the old fluid. I do have a slight fluid seepage around the seals

I heard that Dexron III ATF is not the best fluid to use. What is the forum's current thinking: Type F ATF, or some specific brand PS fluid?

I also have a bottle of AT-205 made by ATP, Inc. I have used it with great success on seal leaks on automatic transmissions. Has anybody used it for a PS seal leak?
