I'm looking for a good source for HC12a refrigerant. It seems the usual, brand names have gone way up in price (what hasn't?) but I found a product called Enviro-Safe that is still reasonable. Does anyone have any experience with it? Dura-Cool, Frosty-Cool, and generic HC12a are three times the price.

Thanks

It says it's the same stuff, has dye in it which isn't really a demerit - most of this stuff is just propane/butane/thingummybob-tane so why not - it'll work just fine. I just filled up my friend's Ford Ranger with 2 and a bit cans of MG chemicals electronic freeze duster (a good source for R134A in Canada lol)

I've been using Frosty Cool for years but don't see why Enviro Cool wouldn't be just as good. Please let us know how it turns out.

Okay, thanks guys. I'll order some. You never know when some over zealous bureaucrat will decide to ban the sale of the stuff.
