I used one of these products last year in my '90 Westy and commented about it on the
list. It was a newer, two-part product, by Inter-Dynamics, that I found at Wal-Mart.
The second can was to clean the sealer from the charging port so as not to seal it up.
My experience mirrors that of T.J. Hannink. It seemed to work for a while, but now I
am back to adding a couple of cans a year.

Hey group:

Got my JC Whitney catalog yesterday and in the section where they sell cans of  R134A
coolant they also sell cans of sealant which supposedly stops leaks in hoses, o-rings
and minor rubber gaskets.

Does anyone have any real knowledge or expertise with this product.

thanks.
