Why get alternatives, when you can get R12 on ebay? i heard that R12 freeze is junk though.

I do hvac work, and if you can get someone to get you some RB276 or 420a refrigerant this is a true drop in for r-12. And is about a 1/4 of the price. If you are somewhere near charlotte nc I can do it for you for a small fee

I had freeze 12 put in my car either last year or the summer before. The shop evacuated the system and put in 3 or 4 cans of freeze 12. So far so good. I can't argue all the good and bad points, just that my car has it and the a/c works. The carquest auto parts store carries it in my little town.
Be careful witht hat freeze stuff, i heard it has propane in it, which is highly fammable. God forbid of a leak someplace in the engine compartment, and a spark-say from the alternator, Not the safest scenario. Just be careful-Bud.

I am sure it does not have propane in it cus that would make it illegal to ship and their site would ahv eto have some sort of disclaimer some where.
glowstang: how does it cool? Is it like R12?
The r-12 alternative stuff works great to top a system off with r-12, but not to completly fill a system. Switch to 134 if you drain it. I don't think you need to change anything at all really anymore to do the switch now. You used ot have to do o-rings and other misc items.

anyone buy R12 off ebay?? I saw many people selling it...
I've bought it off eBay, and all I did was just emailed a bunch of sellers before buying and asked them if they would sell to me if I told them I was buying for a licensed tech to install or buying to resell and most of them were just like "yeah, sure, whatever".
