I do a lot of cleaning condensors. Alkaline coil cleaner has
been working well. But, I've never tried the acid stuff.

What does everyone else like?

Yep and you have to be more careful with it. It takes a lot
of rinsing. I had one idiot use oven cleaner on a small
condensing unit in a kitchen. It cleaned real well and
he rinsed it off real good but got some of it into the box
containing the electrical controls. I haven't used any acid
based coil cleaner in years because the fumes bother me.

Fumes.... not a good thing. The alki tends to be choking,
when the spray is set to a fine mist. So, I don't do that
any more.

I did try oven cleaner on two condensors, today. The dollar
a can stuff from Dollar Tree. Worked fine. The wide spray
mist doesn't penetrate as well as the alki sprayer I use.
But, it did clean the condensors nicely. I'll probably carry
a couple cans as backup when I neglect to refil my alki
foam.

I've used a lot of Vapco Foaminator and it does an excellent job.
