Hi Ali.

I did once a cold store for goat cheese and the air is "full " of amonia.
Tried with Blygold and it lasted for only one year.

The best result that works fine for 4 years now is spraying epoxy paint into the coil with high pressure spraying gun.
At least 4 coats.
It should do the job.

Very little.
No need to do any changes.
