Default Red Angel A/C stop Leak - any good?

Anybody ever tried this stuff?http://gouniversalproducts.com/product_overview_redangel.html&lt\\;br&gt\\;&lt\\; br&gt\\;I’ve been having trouble with my AC staying cold, seems I need to recharge it once a year, which signifies a small leak somewhere. Saw this stuff at NAPA and I wondered if it's any good. If you've had good or bad experience with it, let me hear from ya!

Don't know if you notice it but you've got some random stuff going in your post.&nbsp\\; This is the 2nd time my AC has died on me now, it's going to get a look at next week.&nbsp\\; I had it looked at near the end of the summer last year and they put some fluorescent dye or something in it to be able to check if theres a leak.&nbsp\\; It was working after they did whatever they did but then it stopped working again I guess since I stopped using it (winter).

Only down side is the cost of it , we had great results from using it , and when its use with our charger it doesnt clog up our filters , then its a bitch to clean , our we just replace the filter which cost $$$.. Has not been hot in this area yet , soon **** will hit the fan for the A/C service ,

So can you just slide this stuff in with an inline dye injector? Just run a can of R-134abehind it?

I'll need to get me a good set of manifold gauges, maybe AZ rents those out.

That stuff's no good if it doesn't work; you'll spend a lot replacing pieces it gunked up.
