Re: leak fix
I have never tried that, but I did try a magic spray from my supplier that was supposed to clean condensor coils, without blowing them out with water or air. A customer of mine insisted on using this product himself...it was like "Easy-Off" oven cleaner. It made dirt and grease etc, dissolve into a mushy sludge, that ran down the coil and hardened at the bottom like cement. I ended up changing a bunch of coils that were plugged so full of this stuff that I couldnt get them clean.
So I say, bring on the magic sprays, they will make us rich in the long run...if we live through the environmental damage.

Re: leak fix
seen it, sold it, never used it.. The only thing that should be in a sealed refrigeration circuit should be refrigerant and oil.. If the OEM's thought that stop leak was a good idea they would market it themselves.
