From the discussion on another thread about buying Duracool (yet another dash AC question) Rob M. pointed out he could get Frosty Cool cheaper than Duracool. I put in a mock order for Frosty Cool but did not finish the financial transaction and also did not delete the order. I have received an email from frosty Cool stating the following.

You recently visited our online store and we noticed that you didn't complete your order.

Enter coupon code 10OFF during checkout to receive $10.00 off your order!

To complete your order right now, just click on the link below:
Complete Your Order

If you have questions or need assistance completing your order, please call us at 1-800-300-2412.

It might be worth the gamble to sit on an order and see if they offer a $10 off code.

Per Frosty Cool website:

FrostyCool 134 Replacement Refrigerant is a blend of environmentally safe
hydrocarbon refrigerants designed as a replacement for R-134a and
retrofitted CFC-R12 systems. FrostyCool 134 can be used to replace HCF
R-134a and CFC-R12 substitute refrigerants in mobile air conditioning and
refrigeration units.

FrostyCool 134a operates at lower head pressures and offers colder air and
improved performance compared to HFC-R134a. FrostyCool 134 will extend the
life of a system because of the lower head pressures. FrostyCool 134
Replacement Refrigerant requires approximately 1/3 the amount of the
original charge in the system and must be charged as a liquid.

Yep,

Frosty cool has it listed under Products.

If you read the Details you will find it is for STATIC seals only which I interpreted to mean it would not fix a compressor clutch
seal.

Duracool sells their own brand of sealant. Check Worthingtonagparts.com

Frankly, I wouldn't worry about using off the shelf sealant meant for 134 from Walmart

Be cautious about using the 134a sealant. Some are mixed with the 134a oil (non-mineral) and it might gunk up in a mineral oil R12 system.

My personal opinion is not to use any sealants in the system. If I develop a leak I want to see it and fix it properly.

I agree Emery, but I've had three different guys looking for my dash leak.
All have a theory and none can take their detector and show me the leak.
I'll give it another 'go' later in the Spring with a different A/C 'expert'
.

Long before Duracool became a good alternative, the issue was all about converting from R12 to R134. At the time, the hysteria included replacing all hoses, all seals, and all oil at a minimum with many here advocating replacement of receiver driers and even compressors. At the time most kits offered fittings and compatible oil.I purchased conversion kits from the likes of Autozone and converted not only my GMC but the classic cars I had that had AC. Doom and gloom was hovering over my head, but by pure luck apparently my systems all continued to function perfectly. I did find that on the GMC I had to add a can of R134 once or twice a year. I decided to add a can of stop leak and I never needed to add a can for years. When I learned about Duracool here, I let my system bleed down and added Duracool. It took me a bit to get the fill right, but it now works even better. All in all I have ignored all of the compatibility and doom and gloom predictions and have a had a great system operation for at least 15 years. I think most people will agree that almost all of the hypothetical concerns never played out.

I thought I did!

The link to Frosty Cool had been published earlier in this thread all ANYONE has to do is click on that link and when it opens up
Click on Products and it's there.

For those who really, really need a link to the sealant...

http://www.frostycool.com/a-c-stop-leak-automotive-o-ring-seal-leak-repair-1-x-can/

Also, it appears that the discount code 10off works for anyone. The kicker is that it will only work with a $50 purchase, and a case of frostycool comes in four cents short. Sigh... So you have to find something else to pad the order (a $3 carabiner UV flashlight looks like a good option).
