AirCon Cleaner.
« on: 17 August 2013, 21:44:10 »
Has anyone tried this stuff I'm considering getting 2 for both Omegas, Unless there's a better one someone could recommend  :)

Comma A/C "Bomb" type Cleaner... Fairly cheap here.

Will also be changing the Active Pollen Filters at the same time..

They work well.

Seem to do the job, leave thew car smelling much fresher.  Good if the car has previously been smoked in too :y

No worries, They look too messy compared to the bomb type, But when looking around this came highly recommended for the foam type along with Wurth brand, The Comma highly recommended for the bomb type, Was just wondering how they performed with the Omegas  :)

Personally I'd be a bit wary of that foam.

I put the bombs through ours about twice a year...

You will likely need to clean the interior glass afterwards though :y

I can confirm Dr. Jimbobs diagnosis. An Aerosol Bomb twice a year keeps the smellies away! :y ;)

Good to know that they've been successful, Regarding the windows I've got some AG glass polish and screen cleaner ready   :y

How about the rest of the interior any residues left behind anywhere else apart from the windows ?

the comma one is the one to use :y
 DO NOT >:( use the foam type that you spray down the vents,these cause no end of problems with the heater motors.
The comma one can be found at lokal factors for £7.99, and large tesco's have been known to sell them for £6.99.

before using the comma one place towels over the seats,as they will get damp,and fit a new pollen filter first :) :)
