Sounds right. I tried some of that enviro stuff, the green stuff from
Johnstone. I wasn't all that impressed. Maybe I diluted it too much, but it
didn't foam. I saw some suds down near the ground, when I rinsed it off.
Can't tell if it made a lot of difference.

At least with the purple stuff, it foams up nicely.

The only coil cleaner I use is "Foam & Clean". I don't know what the
brand name is but it works well & you'd better wash it off good
because it's strong. I've tried others but none worked very good. As far
as expense, if that's a factor I don't think you're charging enough.

Geez... I just bought a half a skid of R-22...
Why not purchase a couple cases of cleaner and quit your complaining?
