Power Steering Fluid: PS Fluid or ATF 850

I recently flushed the PS Fluid in my vehicle. I had Mobil 1 Syn ATF previously, but this time AutoZone was out so I grabbed Valvoline Semi Synthetic Power Steering fluid. What's the difference except for one is full and the other is partial synthetic? SHould I change it out and go back with Mobil 1?

    Power Steering Fluid: PS Fluid or ATF 850

    The book calls for plain ol' Dexron IIE/III ATF. My son mixed the Dexron and some power steering fluid and it turned into a creamy mess. I flushed it back out and just put in ATF. I think either one is OK as long as they aren't mixed.
