Flushing Torque Converter

I'm planning on flushing out the transmission fluid tommorow and I'm just wondering how would you flush the fluid out of the torque converter?

I have a 98 civic ex automatic

And do I have to use the honda brand transmission fluid or can I use a different ATF fluid?

I'd use a case of Hondas DW-1 fluid.
